Silver Used With Old Photos - Tumblr Posts
So...about silver and vampires again
Just my brain being strange again on vampire "stuff"
1. Expensive mirrors had silver used to reflect and silver was considered a higher metal /holy component. so Vampires didn't show up in mirrors. Silver repels the reflection not because couldn't cast a shadow.
Stick with me now...
2. 1840's to 1860's photographs used silver coating on copper sheets is "Why" vampires couldn't be seen in photos taken.
(Well besides not enough light and sitting still enough for the image to develop on the plate)
"For daguerreotype images, popular between 1840 and 1860, the photographer put a sheet of copper, coated with silver and exposed to iodine vapor, into the camera. Once the sheet was exposed to light during the taking of the picture, the photographer used a mercury vapor to bring out the image, and then set it with salt."
As for "All Father" as I sometimes call Vlad/Alucard the weaknesses don't apply being first and direct. The weaknesses are passed to his "offspring" directly to indirectly children.
He cheated death so why not cheat on the rules...
