BPX 49 - status, updates, scans

[JeffNunn]

My print is on the mail.

Hi Juan, received your print today and it's fantastic - thank you! A captivating scene (a view from Ristorante Sosta on Francigena's terrace in Tuscany). I like the human interest in the view and the detritus of all the other people that looked to have also enjoyed the location. It's a particularly beautiful part of the world and a perfect capture of it. It would be great to make the trip there myself someday but for the moment will travel with this.

And thanks for listing out the technical details, I'm looking up those various items now. I have to admit I've not seen a colour print like this, and the scanned image doesn't look quite the same, it's far nicer in print. Interesting to see how good a print can be, which was half the reason I wanted to do the exchange. This is large at 24 x 30cm.

I've only developed a couple of rolls of colour film myself, and the colours were all off - seeing this makes me want to have another go, and see what it would take to make some colour enlargements. I have a mini Durst F30 which wont quite get me to this level!

Thanks again

Earlier this week I received a nice print from mfohl; an old and weathered barn door in somewhere in Central Ohio. I was well printed on Ilford MGRC pearl paper. Something quite different from what I usually shoot myself. But that's the nice thing about these exchanges, it opens your view and mind. Thanks Mark!
