A/NZ PX Round #9 - Comments and Feedback

[hoffy]

Ohhh bugga - and here's me thinking I had something to sell to Wheels magazine.

(hmmm, thinks to himself, how can I trip up Andy next time...hmmm)

 

[Oxleyroad]

I'm sure you will trip me up one day, but presently I am having too much fun with all the toys I have to play with - oops I mean test. So I need to be careful or the fun will end.

 

[Oxleyroad]

Bob, your parcel arrived in today's post. My prints were done on the weekend. That leaves eight more parcels by the end of the week - or might that be a big stretch?

 

[hoffy]

No stretch for me. Just need to remember to bring them in with me to work to post!

 

[Michael W]

My prints are done, just require some minor spotting. Will be in the post by Wed or Thurs.

[Nige]

Was aiming to post Friday... until I was told that's a public holiday! (i.e. no post) Doubt I'll get them done by Thursday so a Tuesday posting is looking more like it...

 

[walbergb]

Chalk one up for the postal services

 

[Nige]

Well I got the prints done... just need to flatten them tonight, although last time I turned the dry mount press on it blew the house fuses! Might have to resort to the clothes iron
So posting Thursday is back on, however there will be no one around on Friday to take it over to Hawthorn, so it should get there Tuesday!

 

[munz6869]

I restocked on chemistry the other day - so it'll be the weekend printing I reckon, and then I can beat the post by wandering across the suburb...

Marc!

 

[Andrew K]

mine will arrive early next week - still have some sheets of film to process from a 5X4 pinhole camera I was given - I think one of them would be a good shot for this print swap

last minute? No - I shot the shot for the swap 2 months ago..but you never know

 

[spatz]

I'm heading into the dark tomorrow so it will take a miracle for me to get it into the post by Easter. So that's one more for early next week.

 

[Oxleyroad]

Looks like after Easter it is for sending out the prints to everyone. Now I assume this includes Tim F and SMBooth?

 

[hoffy]

OK, mine are now in the post.

Cheers

 

[Nige]

mine got posted today as well...

 

[SMBooth]

Being washed now..

 

[Michael W]

Mine are packed, addressed and ready to go. My local post office is open on Saturday mornings so I went there today hoping they might be open but suspecting they would be closed, which turned out to be the case. If they had been open I would have made the end of March deadline for posting; unfortunately they won't go until Tuesday.

 

[TimF]

I posted mine on the 28th, from melb while I was over for work, so they should be there soon. I forgot to include a self addressed envelope but I have one here that ill express post up today.
Apologies in advance for my print - its a stretch of the imagination to call it flat. First time with fiber paper and the iron helped but it wasn't perfect.

 

[Michael W]

Mine went in today's post.

If Andrew W's and Munz6869's arrive tomorrow I'll turn the pictures round same day.

 

[Oxleyroad]

All prints turned round today but for Bob's. This will be Monday lunch time job. I'll PM you the postage cost, which should be no different from the past.

Some real top pictures. Two things to note, Shane one of your prints came through with a sticky bit on it. I can't remember who scored that. Andrew K there was one extra print of the Polaroid girl so I sent that back to you. I am pretty sure everyone got two prints from you.

Another round of very good pictures, which in my case drives me to do better in the darkroom especially for the next round sign-up in May. I must post my comments for both the last post card exchange and round 8 of this exchange.
