A/NZ PX Round #7 - comments and feedback.

[Oxleyroad]

As we are now starting round seven here is a thread to post whatever now the sign-up is finished.

I have PM'd my details to you. Any questions get back to me when you can.

Let the fun begin.

I'll finish building the fence this week; then it is off to the darkroom--happy, happy, joy, joy

4 weeks to go before all prints need to be in for distribution to all. Very quiet out there in relation to this thread.

I can say I know what I want to produce, but I am waiting on a set of lab scales to allow me to mix up my chemistry. They will arrive this weekend. 2 weeks ago my old scales decided that everything put onto it had a mass of 7.22g, or oz, or gr, ct and a fresh set of batteries made no difference. I'll be ready with my set in time, and to be sure my kids will not be getting anywhere near my prints when finished.

I am feverishly processing film from holidays: 100 rolls of 120 (Mostly Fuji Neopan/Acros) and 98 sheets of 5x4" TXP... Aroundabout a 3rd of the way through, and the 'oooh, I'd like to print that!' ratio is unusually high, so I'm bound to have something!

Marc!

4 week, i might be able to squeeze out the first prints from my new darkroom. Or maybe not....

 

[walbergb]

Prints are in the mail. Post office says 7-10 days, so I should make the deadline

 

[Oxleyroad]

My prints are being pressed.

 

[Oxleyroad]

First prints have arrived. All the way from Canada!

I made some prints on Tuesday that are currently flattening. I also did a test print of another image that I might use instead, depending on the timing.

Well, I thought I was really going to struggle this round. Life has been rather hectic around this neck of the woods, but I have my 8 drying now. Hopefully they will be in Andrews hands by the end of the week.

Cheers

what can I say??? I'm processing 2 rolls of film tonight..hopefully 1 of them will yield a suitable photo....if not - at least I had fun with a new camera and a new film.......

 

[Oxleyroad]

New camera. New film??? Are you going to enlighten us after this teaser Andrew?

 

[hoffy]

Yes, prey do tell!

BTW, I am going to hang onto mine over the weekend. I want to tone, if I get the chance. Regardless, toned or not, they will be sent before the cutoff date

All I'm saying is that the camera was announced a couple of months ago....

The film was also announced a couple of months ago - although it's from a different source...

 

[Oxleyroad]

??? Is it a 110 camera?

 

[Andrew K]

it may be......and it may not have worked as well as I'd hoped...................

 

[Nige]

mine are done... just need to get into the post...

 

[Oxleyroad]

Well Nige, you might be the third set of prints to come in.

 

[spatz]

just finished washing mine. drying overnight, press and spot tomorrow so should be in the mail wednesday.

 

[Michael W]

Mine were all printed last week and have been flattening since. I think there is a small amount of spotting and trimming required, then they should be in the post on Friday.

 

[Oxleyroad]

Looks like I see a bit of activity.

 

[hoffy]

My prints went in the post today

 

[Michael W]

Mine were sent today.

 

[SMBooth]

Printing, Printing , Printing..

 

[Andrew K]
