Picked out a neg from a recent trip and got it printed over the weekend. It is currently sitting under a pile of weights and will be in the post within a day or two.

Received your beautiful print of the Italian window and wonderful note about using the 4x5 Wista amongst all the digi snappers.

Thank you!

I am mailing mine today.

Received Katie's print yesterday, a nicely toned warm matte portrait. It never occurred to me before to partially bleach followed by selenium. I'll have to experiment with that!

Thanks Katie!

I expect some time in the darkroom this weekend so hopefully I can have a print out soon.

Mark,

Happy to hear the print arrived safe and sound, my apologies for being so dreadfully late. I was very happy with this image after many days (turning into weeks) of agonizing over it.

I received two prints from JimO last week, I have always loved images printed on that Oriental paper, but have never had it available where I live so have not had a chance to try it. Unfortunately, the postal service has once again tried to creatively fit a flat rectangular package into a large mailbox (sarcasm intended) and managed to not only bend the pictures, but break the matte board as well. I have flattened them out as best I can, but I have to admit the crease in them does take a bit away from the images.

Thanks for the images Jim and for the comment Mark.

I know I'm hideously late (I plead getting married - I knew I was going to, but figured I'd still find time for one lousy print. Well life is finally getting back to normal and I'm printing at least occasionally) but I finally made my print last weekend. I need to do some toning and final wash/dry/flatten which I hope to get done over the July 4th break from work.

craig,

had i thought for a moment i probably would have used a stiff board in packing... if you put the prints in a roll and return, i'd remount them and send properly... my second round, put it down to a newbie!

No worries Jim. I actually mounted them already and was able to get most of the creases out of them, not too noticeable.

Thanks,
Craig
