It's almost September here on the east coast of Canada, so let's start the sign up for round 51.
Thanks to everyone for the last round and look forward to seeing you again. Don't forget to invite your friends along as well. This is the last round for 2020 so join in now.

OK, now the standard text, but please read on:

There are links to the FAQs and an Introduction in my signature at the bottom.

As in the previous rounds, please signup by starting a conversation with me (used to be called PM) containing your full name, address (including the country - this is an international exchange) and the number of cards you are able to send or say maximum for the maximum possible number of cards. You can also choose "ALL" you will still only receive the MAX number of cards but you will receive the complete list so you can share your work with everyone if you choose.

As in the previous rounds, if you have been in the exchange for the last couple rounds and if your address is the same, you can sign on just with giving the number of cards here in the thread. No PM needed in this case.

Important! As in the previous rounds I will post lists of participants in this thread every once in a while. If you signed in (or if you think so) please come back to this thread and check if your name is on the list. If the name should be on the list but is not, then let me know. Once the address lists are sent out early in October I can not do any changes. And also check for the number of cards behind your name.

There are a couple threads with an introduction and FAQs (check the links in my sig). Just send me a PM or ask here if you have any questions.

Please read on:

As in the previous rounds, not all participants have been able to send out the cards. For whatever reasons, if you have not fulfilled your last rounds commitment, send your cards before you sign in for this round. Just be fair. (and drop a note in the last round comments to let us know you are okay)

And as in the previous rounds, I am looking forward to this round.

Now for those new to the postcard exchange, here is how it all works out.

First: It is fun!

Second: When registration is over, I will prepare address lists which I will send to the participants. You will have to send a card to every address on that list and you should receive back a card from everyone on that list. So if you join in for e.g. 20 cards you will have to send 20 cards and you should receive 20 cards back.

Third: Did I mention that it is fun? Where else can you receive cards from all over the world, different styles, different methods, different papers, and more.

George

Hello every one.. Not sure how many recieved my prints, i sent out 6 or 7. So far i recieved 4.. :smile:
'Expo': interesting shot of a desolated area.
@Lucid i like the composition with the chaos in one small corner
@Luis-F-S nice use of white space around the print. I like the lfowers, will try to shoot a couple of these
@MattiS interesting shot, the scale and contrast between the people and art work makes for an interesting shot

Hi Dan, the deadline to join is the end of September, maybe October 1st if you want to stretch it. The plan is to send cards in October or November. Then a break until the next round signup starts in January.

While I feel line a bum signing up for this round though I’ve not commented on the fine cards I received in round 50, at least I’d sent mine out more or less on time. So, sign me up please for up to 25. Same address as last.

Thanks everyone for joining in about a week left to sign up.

Now the good news and bad news. Hurricane Teddy stayed mostly out to sea and all is well here. Well not "all" I shut off the desktop computer Monday before the storm and today it refused to boot up. It's an old machine and not unexpected. I do have a backup of all the data. I just have to decide whether to revive an old laptop or look for something new. I'll give it another try tomorrow and try to get a list up, I did get the data transferred to the laptop but it had been wiped then just a bare bones install on it. It should be fine but this is 2020 after all.

I'm afraid I'd rather skip this one... I still haven't really started printing for round 50, and life gets in the way.

If I can make it by the end of sept., then maybe I'll succomb again.
