Postcard Exchange Round 66 Comments and Feedback

Ok, I need to respond to the cards I have received recently...

Absalom1951's "Bent Railing... Beautifully composed & printed. I always enjoy the interaction of rusty metal and nature, one of my favorite subjects. The paper surface and tones are outstanding.

mfohl's "Diamond House"...
Wonderful composition! Nice to see someone using vintage Kodak Postcard paper. Abandoned buildings...another favorite subject.

Michael Howard's "Smith Mountain" .
A lovely desert vista landscape, well printed. A tangible sense of desolation.

Simon I's graveyard image.
Wow, what a gorgeous lith print! Beautiful color and tones. Bravo!

Daniel's "Sculpture at La Défense"
Excellent graphic study with interplay between geometric and organic shapes.
Reminiscent of Jacques Tati's "Playtime" in some ways. Unfortunately, the croissant stamp lost its aroma along the way.

Jim Christie's "Too Many Wheelbarrows"...
A wonderful example of Roadside America quirkiness. The subject matter makes one ask not only "Why?" but "How?". Well seen and printed!

Thank you, all!

6 cards received so far:
Jim Christie - Too Many Wheelbarrows - Very crisp print nicely composed
ChrisR - Ghost Trees - Very interesting abstract "movement" picture, I love the colors
mfolh - Diamond House - Old houses/buildings, one of my favorite subjects, on old Kodak postcard paper, nicely done
absalom1951 - Bent Railing - Looks like the Jacks-in-the-Greens are taking over this site
Daniela - Sculpture at La Dispense - Absolutely wonderful printing on this. Daniela is, in my opinion, a master printer.
Simon I - Unnamed - Beautiful lith print of, I believe, a grave marker. The color is perfect.

First card received yesterday

"At Ease" - @AnselMortensen - What an interesting photo. I wonder if these folks were actually performers in some type of stage play, being photographed during some rest break. The lighting setup looks rather staged on the stage . Is that Kimac Sticker on the back of the photo old stock you have hanging around? And BTW, the stamp was cancelled with a sword ... lol

@gbroadbridge , Yes, those backing stickers were ones I have had for quite some time.
I guess a USPS clerk somewhere thinks a pen is as mighty as a sword. LOL.

I have been slacking here. I have received three cards so far:
@AnselMortensen "At Ease" from a found negative. At first I didn't see the man behind the camera's legs they blended in with the wall so it took me a moment to figure out what was going on! What a fun find.
@mfohl "Diamond House" about an abandoned house. I am sure that house has some storied to tell.
@Michael Howard "Portal 2" about a cave used by silver miners. It has a cold, lonely feel which seems fitting for the subject.

Thank you all!

I have mine printed, I just need to address and label them, then find time to go by the post office while they are open.
