A/NZ PX Round #4 - Comments and Feedback

[Yamaotoko]

G'day All,

Sorry for the silence from my end, moving house has left us with no internet!

I've had a few hassles with my prints, the main one being that we got a last-minute opportunity to attend 'sleep school' that we just couldn't pass up (our little fella is still having a bit of trouble adjusting to the outside world), which meant we were in the residential program for the whole of last week... very helpful experience, but frustrating when there were so many things back home I wanted to be getting on with!

Just have to give my prints a final spotting (tonight, promise!), then they'll be in the post, or, hopefully, hand delivered over the weekend. I was also waiting on some bleach from Vanbar, but after telling me they could get it to the Carlton store by the following morning, when I went to pick it up they told me it would be 'another couple weeks, at least', so I've had to make-do with stuff I had on hand... hopefully the prints are still passable

I'll be in touch with the boss as to whether my prints are going by post or by hand, sorry for the delay guys!

Well, happy to send them off as is, but no comments on the white spots please!

 

[tomalophicon]

Deal.
I luckily had a really clean negative.

 

[Kevin Caulfield]

My prints have a tiny hair in one place, but I wanted to get them in on time and was away from Wednesday to Friday, so hopefully they still look okay.

 

[tomalophicon]

We'll all notice now Kevin.

 

[Kevin Caulfield]

We'll all notice now Kevin.

Okay, tomalophicon, see if you can be the first to identify the location of the hair.

 

[tomalophicon]

Haha OK, a challenge.

 

[Andrew K]

I have not been able to get in touch with timk, so I put it out to the group what do we want to do here? Options, 1. timk still runs his prints and posts to everyone in group 1 separately, and then I drop of a set of prints to him at the Melbourne Camera Club, Everyone else will have their prints much sooner. 2. All in Group one wait for timk to get his prints in for distribution. 3. We assume nothing coming from timk and I return the extra print everyone sent in for timk. 4. Other ideas?

 

[Yamaotoko]

We'll, I'm officially no longer in the 'what the heck does this straggler think he's up to?' group! Dropped my prints on today on my way past. Forgot, however, to include info sheets, oops! Once all have been distributed I'll cough up all the details.

 

[Sweettea]

He y'all. Had a wee rough spot recently that set my timing back. Got the prints and am writing them up now. Will post tomorrow. My sincere apologies. Cheers.

In relation to TimK's photos, mys suggestion would be to continue to make contact/try and get a response while we wait for Sweettea's prints to arrive. If we get no acknowledgement, I am happy to have one print sent back.

 

[Yamaotoko]

Seconded.

In relation to TimK's photos, mys suggestion would be to continue to make contact/try and get a response while we wait for Sweettea's prints to arrive. If we get no acknowledgement, I am happy to have one print sent back.

Thirded/hear hear/etc.

Marc!

I think I have his mobile number. Should I try that?

 

[Oxleyroad]

I have heard from timk but I have asked him (as I have asked others) to respond directly to the group. But Kevin you might want to call Tim if you have his number.

I will wait until sweettea's prints arrive before packing off all the parcels. I can't wait to open up everyone's prints.

 

[tomalophicon]

Oxley, you haven't looked yet?

 

[Yamaotoko]

I was surprised too, he's being very gentlemanly about it!

 

[tomalophicon]

Wow, I'd already have them hanging on the wall, etc...

 

[Oxleyroad]

Yeah I don't look because I might decide that my prints are not good enough, or change my mind or something. By not looking until the last minute I ensure I get the same surprise that everyone else will get.

Also I do not loose anything if the packages are all left sealed, and limit the potential of my two younsters (5 and 3) of doing something unwarranted.

 

[Oxleyroad]

Final update. Plan to send the pictures out to everyone Monday morning. Nothing has arrived from Sweettea as yet. timk advised that he'd forgot and would not participate this round, very disapointing that he would not fess up to everyone.
