Blind Print Exchange Round 10 - Status and Updates

[Romary]

Merci beaucoup

I never got the package out last week as I said, but my prints are on their way now! I couldn't decide which one to send so they both went!

What a pleasure to arrive at home at the end of the day and find two great prints from Lori. They have arrived in perfect shape.

Merci beaucoup

 

[david James lee]

mine is printed and dry and flat. ready to send and probably out this week.....

 

[kraker]

Just finished the packaging, now all that is needed is the posting.

I hope I can send it on or before Saturday. I'll post here again when it's on its way.

 

[Christopher Walrath]

Thank you, Jacco.

 

[kraker]

Faster than I anticipated...

My print is in the mail, on its way to its recipient.
It's crossing some water, but it's not a huge trip, so I guess it should arrive within a week or so.

What's next? Ah yes, the Postcard Exchange. Time to start working on that one.

 

[david James lee]

ok, finally i fedexed mine yesterday. should reach destination this weekend. ( when do we start with round 11...?)

( when do we start with round 11...?)

Chris have indicated the schedule here : (there was a url link here which no longer exists)

 

[Christopher Walrath]

Thanks, David. In the meantime I don't know whether or not you have checked out (there was a url link here which no longer exists). You make a print(s) and then post that you would like to offer them to trade. Or browse those already posted and offer trades in exchange for what they have. I am not familiar with all of the guidelines, but I do know that it is recommended you only offer 'completed' prints. So check it out.

Or, just send someone else a print. Just for the heckuvit.

We have 27 participants. 10 confirmed sent. 5 confirmed received. Not half bad. Keep it up.

Chris,

I received mine this week. They were fantastic. I'm still working on getting mine out.

Davids image had a good landing today in my mailbox. A nice little image which made me smile. Thanks David I like it.

So my image for this exchange went out with my images for the alt and the group print exchange. All those images found their way but the one for this exchange seems to be lost.

Cheers
Ruediger

 

[Christopher Walrath]

Advised, Joel and Rudy. Thanks for letting me know.

Whew!!!

Got the print David, it's wonderful!!! Unfortunately, customs had to open it and despite the description you put as a photograph they liberally applied a box cutter to it.

Fortunately, they only slice the back side of the mat board and the picture side was saved.

It's an awesome print and it will hang on my living room wall for a long, long time. Makes me want to get a Leica. Thank you very much!!!

Best,
Randy

I am very glad you liked it. good luck i decided to mat it and in the last minute i put another piece of board in the front ! this photograph looks much nicer in this size and especially when framed. thanks for your comment.

David J. Lee

 

[Christopher Walrath]

Be advised. I have now printed. I will now send.

Ha ha, now that someone else received also a David image I realized that my David image is for the postcard exchange. Still thanks to David and I go over into waiting-mode again.

Cheers
Ruediger (confused by too many exchanges)

 

[david James lee]

no, thank you Rudiger for organizing the exchange. glad you liked it.

Hello,

I received Friday (sorry for the late feedback post) a wonderful print from Kraker (Netherlands).
It is a wonderful print, Kraker, and I am very admirative of one being able to produce a high quality print with a temporary set up. The composition was interesting, and the deep rich blacks beautifully rendered. I like MGIV glossy and cold tones well done.
I did appreciate the accompanying letter, because it is very helpful to reframe the photograph within one's context.

I agree with your comment re: flattening the print. And I am sending you a PM with regards to this.

I will be sending my print out this week, I'll confirm when it is in the post.

Best

Wow... That's very nice and stimulating feedback. I'm glad you like it. Thanks, thanks and thanks again!

Hmmm...at what point do we assume the prints were lost in the mail? I sent mine 2 weeks ago and it was only traveling a couple states.

I sent out mine Feb 10th and have not heard back from the receiver. At the same time some other prints were sent and they all made their way. So either it is lost or the one I sent the print to has not found the time to confirm that the print arrived, how can I know. I think it is best to wait until the recipient complains before I send a second print.

Cheers
Ruediger

 

[Christopher Walrath]

Unfortunately, not everybody in the past has adhered to the Please-Let-Us-Know policy. Hopefully that will change in this round. Give it time. More than likely, as Rudy mentions, an overlooked need to give feedback here on this thread. That's all. Don't worry.

 

[david James lee]

mine is not here yet, but i guess it's still early?
