Postcard Exchange Round 11 - Results and Feedback

[Dietmar Wolf]

Hi.

I received the last one today.

Thank you all for the terrific postcards. Me and my wife enjoyed them very much. It is really a great thing to physically exchange prints. I like it very much and will join the next print exchange for sure.

What paper did you use Bastiaan?

Cheers

BobF " Niche in ruined medieval church..." Very nice image Bob, could you please let me know what film, film developer and paper developer you used for this image.
Thanks in advance Greg

I thought the label looked a bit short on text - I always forget something...

I'll be putting up a scan in the Gallery in a few days with the info but: Neg = 120 FP4+ in ID11 @ 1+1. Paper = MGIV-RC in Neutol WA with sepia tone (pulled from the bleach early).

Cheers, Bob.

I am always interested how photograph became what it is, or better the LOOK.
Thanks again Greg

Bastiaan Spring cleaning. Great looking european architecture, brick sidewalks ... .

Thanks guy's it has been fun receiving all the cards, I am almost disappointed when I look onto the mail box and there is nothing . Keep them coming.

2 more cards arrived while I was away mtbing in the Lakes:

Buttons & Seaweed by BWKate-a lovely image which glows with subtle details;the buttons (which could have been newly washed up from a shipwreck) really leap out from the darker background.Congtarts on a very moving and sensitively observed set of images in B&W BTW.

Ruined Church by Bob F-an enigmatic and beautifully printed image which looks like it should be on the cover of the latest Dan Brown thriller....what long buried secrets does the blocked up window hide?....the truth is still out there.

Thanks!

Three cards arrived this week:

• Bastiaan's spring cleaning was a hoot! Made me laugh up the elevator causing some evil eyes to stare my way.
• The niche in a ruined medieval church from BobF has a nice warm tone to it.
• And Matti's postcard is fascinating. It looks as if it was taken at night with car lights.

Great stuff people, keep'em coming. This round was great in that it's spreading itself over several more weeks versus other rounds when the postcards appeared to come all at once. Makes for nice gems in between the bills and junk mail.

Thanks, Art.

Holidays are over and company is gone so I can finish my cards off tomorrow and hopefully they will be in the mail the first of the week so there are still more to come to your mailbox

Black Dog: Thanks for the kind words! Have you seen the Sept. issue of B&W? I haven't seen it yet. It takes about a month to get here!

My darkroom is functional again (at last! ) and I'll be printing cards this week.
