Arrived home from work to find Art's wonderful cyanotype of the Metropolitan Hotel in the mailbox. I love the feeling of depth in the print, and I really do not find the print color to be a detriment as I always thought I would. I really must give it a try myself.
I've been away 'up north' for the past week or so and also have arrived home to find a beautiful cyanotype from Art. I would agree with Fredw, great depth and sparkling highlights all set off in a real nice mount. 5 x 4 contact negs do have a quality of their own. Oh yes, the polaroid of the fresco was an added bonus. Many thanks.
John

I'm tempting fate here I know but I am hoping to have a printing session tomorrow night, which means I will hopefully have my prints in the post by the end of the week.
Thanks to all of my group for their patience
Cheers
Phill

Again , thanks to all for your patience, I hope it is worth the wait.

OK, I managed to make it to the post office today and my prints are on their way.
Hi Art,
your print finally arrived here last weekend and I want to thank you for this nice print. Sometimes I think there are art loving people at the customs, so they want to have a closer look at the prints and I have to wait for 8-)
Regards, Anke

I might be the last one to complete this round but I finally got them posted today
I must confess to feeling guilty about the delay as I usually dispatch my prints on or before the submission date, however this round got the better of me.
Question is....do I sign up for the next round?
Cheers
Phill

Phill,
Yes, you should sign up. It's not whether you got your prints done on time, but you were very conscientious in keeping us informed on what was going on at your end. It's fun to get out and make new work for the exchange, though I don't always have the time do do that.
