Thanks! I'll try to get mine out in the next few weeks or so.

I just got a PM from Mateo about the albumen print I sent him back in June--

Well, I guess the lesson is to pack carefully. I usually send mine either in an 11x14x1" box that I can get from Staples in packs of 5 or in a Savage corrugated cardboard print mailer. Not sure which I used for Mateo's.

Just check under the mat more often

I printed my images for Round 3 last night.

This was the first photographic task I have done in almost 2 months and it felt good to get back to the darkroom. I really need to get back into the swing of things. Why do all the good things have to wait?

Now I just have to matt and mount them and get them in the post! (I am still waiting for 2 addresses as well)

Cheers

Just finished printing 7 of the 9 10x8 plt/pd prints to find a small fault on the neg which I hadn't seen as I was printing - an earlier piece of paper couldn't have been dry enough and I have plt/pd on the neg Whilst its small I notice and am in a quandry as to what to do - Need to think as I really like this neg! I've time but....

I love the alt print exchange. Today, Dan-Dan-the-UPS-Man arrived with a beautiful polariod transfer from gr82bart, (aka Art, aka www.ArtLiem.com). The print is a delicate little jewel of a transfer--a beautiful, yet unique, woodland scene.

Thank you much, Art.

To those in my group, It finally rained, which means the combines have come to a hault, and I can get to printing. I mixed all the chemicals today and will let them age over night. Should be able to print tomorrow.

Thanks again, Art.

I would go ahead and send it if it is really good image.
