There is an upcoming Wet Plate Collodion Gathering in Australia, which is designed for both novices and those more practiced at using this antiquarian technique at Gold Street Studios, Trentham, Victoria. It is run by Craig Tuffin.

Tuffin's image is part of the 'As Faulty As We Are’ series, which is an ongoing project of contemporary portraits using the historic photographic medium of Wet-Plate Collodion (ambrotypes and tintypes). Using this method allows the photographic artist to embrace imperfection as an integral part of the artistic process.
