Sorry, it is too late for this round. Next signup is in a few months. Send me a PM.

 

[anikin]

My print is off to a much warmer and sunnier place. I wish I could come with it...

 

[jvo]

ooohhhh, as a past recipient of one of anikin's print, i know there is a lucky print moving to warm clime AND a very lucky recipient of a truly beautiful piece of art!

 

[anikin]

JimO,

Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad you like the print!

Eugene.

 

[jvo]

whoa... couldn't blown me over with a feather!

went to the post box today and wondered what's this round tube? hmm, quick glance couldn't find a return address, so put it aside and headed home.

opened it up and found a beautiful print - "cliff palace of mesa verde" from Anikin. Wonderful! i'm a second-time recipient from eugene. i was more than plesantly surprised, momentarily confused, then a big smile came about, amazed at my good fortune. thank you, eugene, i still have your first print on the wall! you have given me great pleasure.

now i have to get in the darkroom, i have some very big shoes to fill.

i love this - thanks for your efforts harry.

 

[hpulley]

I don't have lists from all the old rounds so you may get repeats. In fact this round was completely random.

[jvo]

no complaint...

no, i'm not complaining at all... i'm blessing my good fortune...

let me be so cursed in the future!!!

 

[anikin]

To say the truth JimO, I simply cannot recall sending two prints to you. Are you sure the one on the wall was from me? Can you describe what's on the print? There is a lot of praise here, and I'm worried I don't deserve all of it ;-)

 

[jvo]

a view of mesa verde, 20x24 rc print... now i'm wondering... i threw out the "tube" it came in, although i ordered new eyeglasses this week, i thought it was from you. (maybe wishful thinking?!!!).

 

[Roger Cole]

I've been WAY too busy to print this month. I'm getting married Saturday (Mar 31) and then leaving on my honeymoon. I hope to have time to print for several exchanges I'm committed to starting in April.

Congrats!

 

[hpulley]

Sorry for being absent, not being a great coordinator again. Busy with work and life so I hope everyone else has been busier printing than I have been.

 

[markbarendt]

I've made a few prints but not happy yet.

 

[paul_c5x4]

Picked out a neg from a recent trip and got it printed over the weekend. It is currently sitting under a pile of weights and will be in the post within a day or two.

 

[Roger Cole]

Should have some printing time the the next few weekends so hope to get this done.

 

[rst]

Finally my print made it to the post office. Sorry for being late.

Cheers
Ruediger

Received your beautiful print of the Italian window and wonderful note about using the 4x5 Wista amongst all the digi snappers.

Thank you!

(Katie)

I am mailing mine today.

 

[Roger Cole]

Received Katie's print yesterday, a nicely toned warm matte portrait. It never occurred to me before to partially bleach followed by selenium. I'll have to experiment with that!

Thanks Katie!

I expect some time in the darkroom this weekend so hopefully I can have a print out soon.

 

[jvo]

i think i'm way late with this round... but did mail my print today... i have no excuses, just an apology to the group for the delay!
