I received a very beautiful and artistic print from Mark (mfohl) this morning in the mail. What a pleasant surprise! Thank you.

They made it over the ocean and through the first snow dump. While I was away on a trip, two beautiful prints from Uwe arrived; a landscape of Madeira and a building in Leipzig. The landscape photo has a hollow tree trunk that stands like a statue surrounded by mountains and clouds. The photo of the building is a lith print and the sepia tone suits the topic well. Vielen Dank Uwe! Maybe you can whisper to your little program that I would like to return the favor in the next BPX.

I've started working on my prints but they still need a bit more "oompf".

I am supposing that my print has not arrived as it seems quite a while ago and in that time it could have reached the moon.

Black Dog · Dec 24, 2019

Very pleased with Howardpan's wintry scene-just my kind of thing!

Many apologies Cedric, but I have just received your print today, Friday 27/12/19. and yes, it is quite sometime after you sent it, so maybe it is on a return journey, after being misdirected to the moon, as you say.

What I have been sent is a lovely deep blue coloured cyanotype. Cedric tells me that he made the print from a Rollei 35SE compact camera negative, taken almost 35 years ago.

The print is of what looks like a reflection, in rippled water, and of some buildings and their white window frames. It is lovely to receive it as it's something that I at least, rarely see or receive in the print and postcard exchanges.

So, once again Cedric, many thanks for a lovely print to add to my collection, which has made me think of trying the process myself once more when the weather improves, probably in a few months at least.

It would also be good to post it in one of the galleries for others to see as well.

I have finally selected, printed and matted my first print for this exchange.
Tomorrow it will try to find its way to one of you.
I hope it is up to standard and you like it.

9 from 11, not bad. We enter the rest and relaxation period in some days. I as the ones who did not print yet, to do it at least during January.

RauschenOderKorn · Dec 28, 2019

I am sorry, I am a little late on sending my print and reporting back the print I received.

I got a beautiful colour print from halfaman showing a street scene from Buenos Aires.

@halfaman: erkerrik asko for the lovely print and for bringing back the memories of my own trip to BA.

I expect to send my print in the next days, before work start again in Germany on Jan. 7th.
