News

Latest updates, event info., etc.

There was a major server disaster in August 2007, when we lost all of recent updates to the site contents, server optimization, custom modifications to the software, etc. We are still in the recovery process and some links may not work.

Gallery

Fine art photography by Ryuji Suzuki.

Original silver-gelatin prints are generally available for sale. They are also available for licensing for commercial users (such as business websites, brochures, and other publications).

Research

A major part of the Silvergrain project is to investigate effective ways to approach traditional photography using the latest science and technology:

  • How can we improve image quality, image permanence and methods of presentation?
  • What can we do to reduce toxicity to the user and minimize harm to the environment, while maintaining the highest level of image quality and archivality?
  • What are the sensible choices in order to minimize waste materials, waste water, and greenhouse effect gases?
  • How we should prepare for the future of silver-halide photography?

    The research contents are also available for mobile browsers (e.g., browsers on cellular phones and PDA's) at Silvergrain Research (mobile edition).
