My photo may be from the 'blad this time.
I'm still trawling through negatives trying to find something I'm happy for other folks to see, but suspect mine won't come from the Wista either (plus, I don't have a 4x5 enlarger!)

Someone in Geelong is selling a decent Beseler 4x5 enlarger on ebay right now - if it goes for more than $50, that'll break some record...
I'm tempted.... but sometimes sanity MUST prevail!

Oh, are they Marc...?
Mmm. Set your mind free and snap it up!

Uh Oh, let's not have an accidental bidding war between fellow print swappers!
I certainly don't "need" another one - I already gave away my "spare"!!!

Oh, sorry about that, Marc.
Hey, SteveR, if you'd like to use my darkroom to print on a 4 x 5 enlarger you are welcome.
Wife will kill me.......
Thanks very much for the offer Kevin, I think for this one I should just 'go with what I know', I'm in the middle of moving house and finding a new job, so settling down with my own enlarger may be the one little shred of consistency I can manage to pull up in the next month or so! I AM, however, watching the Omega D3 on ebay at the moment, that could be a very nice upgrade from my trusty old Meopta Opemus 5a...
The trouble with Kevin's darkroom, is that he has a revolving door policy.

Oh that's really terrible!!!!

Actually that is quite funny, Mick.
...So, show of hands, who knows exactly what they're printing, and have possibly even already finished printing... and how many of us are just sitting here staring at contact proofs deliberating which images we wouldn't be too embarrassed to pass around?
I have an idea on a few, but haven't narrowed it down yet. And embarrassed? Meh, I'll take the "I'm a beginner" approach...
I know what I'm printing - for the better part of a year I've been obsessing over a negative of the Basel Central Switching Station - the negative was developed poorly by an idiot (moi!), but I will get a good print out of it yet....
Marc!

Printed mine yesterday. Now just have to tone and spot (Dang! Spotting these 110 contact prints is a bugger!)

I spent some time mulling over contact sheets last night then decided to have a go at a negative I have wished to print for some time.
Did a print series for density using a section of the negative, liked the section that much that my interpretation of the negative has done a 180º turn and I am making the print just of that section only.
There is a print on the fridge door at the moment and having had lunch and decided that it was a goer, it will be printed later this afternoon.
Marc, The Basel switching station sounds interesting, is that anything to do with the different coloured trams they have in that wonderful city? Breakfast in Switzerland, lunch in France and dinner in Germany, what a place.
Tone and Spot, nah, toning is for birds!
As for spotting, I don't think this negative requires any, I'll see. For those 110 contact prints I have a 00000 brush, trust me, when I say it's fine.

Has the pro-forma info sheet been circulated and I've missed it? If so, could someone please post a copy here (or PM me with a copy).
Thanks

Now I'm scared :|
So who brought the 4x5 enlarger on Ebay......mmmm (no not me).
Shane, how much did it go for?
Mick.
Mick.
still working out what to print, I have 15 rolls of film I took in Bali that I've developed and haven't done a thing with apart from printing contact proofs. I just made a couple of enlargements today, and one of them I think I'll print for the exchange, only problem is I'm using that print for a demonstration at the MCC printmakers group tomorrow night so I might have to leave that one for next time since the entire printmakers group will have seen it.
My problem is every holiday I go on, I come back with 10-15 rolls of film. I'm still printing my way through stuff from a trip I went on 18 months ago to cambodia...
Anyone who has their prints ready can drop them off to me at the Melbourne Camera Club tomorrow night.
