I absolutely love this composition. It's old and antique so I think that it fits the process well! The only critique I would have is maybe make everything a little sharper except for her hand with the teapot. But overall I totally love this image.
This image works well within the project's guidelines. The subject is clearly antique - especially with the touch of antique dolls. The cracking and distress throughout the image work nicely.
This is wonderful. I think you nailed it with the blurring on the figure and the sharpness of the stuffed animals and dolls. The distressing is also very well done. I also enjoy the perspective in which this was shot, so that the viewer of the photo seems like a guest at the tea party.
The story plays so well into the conceptual conversation this piece is having with the process at hand. It appears as if a modern woman is stepping back into a time when she used to have tea parties as a little girl. The emulation of the Wet Plate process is quite successful as well. One thing I might recommend would be adding more blur to the hand and the face since this pose would be very hard to hold for an expended period of time. I would also look at depth of field and how you might imply a much shorter one.
