Postcard Exchange : Round 7

jknotzke · Jul 19, 2006

Ya, about the same here.. in the low 30's.. Me thinks there are a few dead beats out there..

BirgerA · Jul 20, 2006

Got a new one today, from Todd. Fascinating forms.

Regards
Birger A.

toddstew · Jul 20, 2006

Thanks Birger. Glad to hear it made over the pond. I got Kate's beautiful card today. What a trip that must have been! Sorry to hear about your camera.
Todd

BWKate · Jul 20, 2006

Thanks Todd,

I did get my camera repaired thanks to my mom for a loan! She is very supportive.
Yes, that trip was a once in a lifetime opportunity and I tried my best to enjoy both the good and the unexpected. I sent my ten year old son's grade five class an email journal with photos. First time being away from him for such a long time.

Best Regards,
Kate

Many apologies to all in the exchange. I have been amazed at the cards received, I was remiss in not ordering my Post Card stock in time. Now that it's here (Thanks John), it's too dern hot to print. Next week the weather here in san jose should break and I will get them out.

tim ( i am not a dead beat, well, not a very good one) in san jose

BWKate · Jul 21, 2006

Looking forward to it, Tim!

Received John Havard's postcard today! Very nice John, I like the image! Was it almost dusk? It looks like the lights were on. Do you live in Mississippi or Missouri?
Thanks for the postcard!

Peter Schrager · Jul 24, 2006

postcards

Best, Peter

Nancy · Jul 24, 2006

They're still straggling in, and it's such a treat to recieve each and every one. Kate, I got yours today. You must have spent a lot of time writing on the cards, but I really enjoyed reading it. Great image.

BWKate · Jul 25, 2006

Yup, Nancy!
I wrote a personal message on each and every card and it did take awhile but I enjoyed it! Thanks.

I really thought that was a nice touch - it inspired me to do all of the writing by hand this round.

Thanks for the compliment! It's Mississippi. When I shot that roll, it was completely dark. Fortunately, that part of the park is well lit, sometimes annoyingly so.

Bob F. · Jul 28, 2006

Continuing my seemingly constant attempt to be the last person to send his postcards (not intentional, but it seems to work out that way at least 50% of the time) - mine went out a couple of days ago so should be falling on to people's doormats soon.

Anthony Uk nearly got a test strip - I only just noticed as I was putting the stamp on after already having put the address and info labels on it... ooops.

Cheers, Bob.

gordrob · Jul 28, 2006

Well Bob it looks like your not the last. I am late as well but have had to resolve a plumbing issue in the darkroom and I am once again able to print so I hope to have mine out in the the mail by Monday. My apologies to everyone for being late but I have enjoyed all the cards I have received and I regret that I didn't get involved in this in an earlier round. The fun part is to see who get to the mail first cause everyone on the family has been enjoying the postcards.

simulatordan · Jul 28, 2006

Hello All,

Five postcards arrived in the last 2 days, and every one a good one.
Thanks go to:
BobF, Really like the sense of open space and quite.

Lee Turner, Old Stone and Churches do it for me every time, nice perspective too.

Peter Schrager, Interesting juxtaposition of working machinery and affluence, great depth of image.

Randy Ellis, Stunning abstract from such a simple subject, beautiful.

Jhavard, different textures and the sweeping curve, invite me to take a walk in the park.

Thank you all for great images, I'll be sad when this round ends.

Regards Daniel

Buster6X6 · Jul 29, 2006

It's kind of sad that cards are fahr and between now, I was looking forward every day coming from work to enjoy another image. O well , I hope we will have more of this post card exchanges.
Today I received card from jhavard Thank you very much John. Very interesting image. I have been trying to shoot some night images before with some success but learning curve is slow.

Thanks again to everyone who had send cards to date.

Greg

mikeg · Jul 29, 2006

Don't worry -- I'm sure Nige will kick off the next round soon

and the fun starts all over again ....

Cheers

Mike

Nicole · Jul 29, 2006

I'm also late getting my cards out due to a large workload and never enough hours in the day. But I will get there, as always. I hope you enjoy them when they fly out the door, I will continue the little 'ballet dance series' for you. Not much longer to go.

Light is still light, no matter the time of day.

Received Peter Schrager's postcard today. Very interesting image, thanks!

thanks!

Thank you BW Kate!!

Paul Sorensen · Aug 1, 2006

I finally got mine out late last week. Sorry for the delay.

Ailsa · Aug 1, 2006

I have a horrible feeling I'm trailing in as one of the last contributors - again. Some things never change! The frustrating thing is, I printed up a whole batch ages ago, but not quite enough, and because of holidays, weddings, camping weekends - the usual summer stuff - I've not been able to get into the darkroom to make up the numbers. Hopefully I'll cram an hour or two in this weekend, finish them off, and get them sent next week. Apologies from me, and thanks for all the cards I've received so far. I've been really enjoying this round.
