In his younger days, Ansel Adams used a hole in the blinds as light source
Hi Buzz-01,
It's not the Dutch postal service that took so long. I got them almost right away but didn't feel I could write until I had mine out the door...
Thanks for the infrared pictures, it's rare to see them these days since the film isn't easy to handle.
The Scottish Highlander is a strikingly handsome beast. Looks like a great place to explore.
And received today, Wednesday 17/11/21, so thanks. Only a week from door to door!Sorry for being so late, I have finally managed to send my print!
I hope the snail mail is not delayed by Brexit and tezzasmall gets his print quickly.
Sorry for delay in replying.I received 2 nice prints from tezzasmall... Second one a lith print of a park scene, I really like the high contrast in the trees but with good tonality in other areas. Like the color too, my lith prints often come out a little bit too orangey for my taste, was this an earlier print in the session? Thanks, Terry!

Two totally different subjects are in the two prints received. (Is 'two' the new 'one'? I ask as this is becoming the norm, I have found, with myself also sending out two prints quite often, of late.)
The first print is of an abandoned building's front view. The interesting thing about this print, is that it has been given a very slight blue tone to it with 'Moersch Blue' and 'Finisher Blue' being used, which suits the subject well and makes the concrete of the building look cold.
The second print is on glossy RC paper, a surface which I haven't seen for quite a while, but it really works with the subject and makes the print seem sharper and with more contrast. The subject? A zebra taken at Augsburg zoo, where Bernd was testing a Tokina 75 - 400 zoom, which he reports as working well. The lens has helped to fill the frame with the zebra and the stripes are very well caught and are lovely and sharp. A good out of focus background is also been enabled with the lens, which I presume was used at the longer end of the range?
Two more great prints for my collection!

P.S. I was a little confused initially, as to whom the prints were from, as you didn't mention your Photrio name, but luckily I noticed my name as being the recipient in this thread. I was also more confused as you mention two BPX rounds, 36 and 37, but no worries, I got there in the end!
