I received a beautiful colour print from halfaman of a photo of friends with a great backdrop/view of the Pyrenees in nice afternoon light. The colours look great, good tonality with good blacks and highlights. Also, very cool too to see an RA4 print other than my own and even on a different paper than Fuji CAII!
Thanks Juan Carlos!

Thanks to you, Gijsbert, so glad you like it.

Just wanted to know how the group of BPX members are doing in these trying times. We are doing well up here in the Great (soon to be WHITE) North of Canada.

October goes to its end and therewith the planned finish of this BPX round. I assume that all of you are ok. But I understand that photographing, perhaps connect with travelling is nearly impossible for most of us.

I hope that we may finish this round so everybody gets a photograph.

I recommend that we make a break after this.What do you think?

mfohl · Oct 27, 2020

Thanks, Uwe. Actually, I am still making photos, both film and digital. I go out once a week with the same two or three photo friends, and we drive through Ohio. And I sometimes go out alone with large format of pinhole. All that helps to deal with boredom and depression. I would like to continue the print exchange, it is another enjoyable activity. When others continue, of cours.

halfaman · Oct 29, 2020

I would like also to continue but confinements are starting again in Spain and I don't know what it is going to happen in short term. I think there is the same issue in other European countries.

piu58 · Oct 29, 2020

I recommend that we first extend this round another month.

Canuck · Oct 29, 2020

Sounds fine with me. Its been a hectic few months for me, but I do look forward to the print exchange.

This week I received a package from @Canuck with two very nice prints, one on FB and another on RC paper.
Thank you!
I don't have them close at hand right now, but I will definitely write more very soon.

At the same time I'm almost ready to send mine. Hope to finish the task this weekend.

Looks much better now. Yes, we have a new round starting in December..

Happy to hear you got them! I have never sent or received anything that far away before. Cheers!

Likewise-I've posted my print and also got one; I'm all good and appreciate things like the BPX more than ever. Take care and all the best everyone.

Only one not sent! Great.

Just to keep you updated, my package passed the Customs and is awaiting the next flight overseas.

I received a beautiful print from Bernd (sorry I don't know your APUG ID) of Augsburg, Germany last week. I was in awe of the color print made from a black and white negative using the Chromoskedasic Sabattier Technique. I love the print, but more importantly, it's a reminder to myself of the countless creative darkroom techniques that are open tome. This very quick photo taken with my cell phone probably doesn't do it justice. Thank you.
