Broughty Ferry, to the north of Dundee, Angus, Scotland (1880) Carte de Visite


Paris France, 1865 Ambrotype
Both these images seem very similar actually. I wouldn't be able to tell the difference if I wasn't aware that these images are from different photography practices. The Ambrotype seems to be a lot clearer than the Carte de Visite. The Carte de Visite seems to be more grainy and yellowish. The Ambrotype also seems to possess more depth than the Carte de Visite. Overall, I think the Ambrotype is a better photograph just because it possesses more definition and depth but I guess it is just up to the observer.
