    Received my first card(s) today in this exchange. Actually there are three, all from the same APUGer:

    Mike Wilde - “Soaring Spaces”, “Kid in a Candy Store” and “Abandon(ed) Baggage Building” - Mike’s use of envelopes for 5x7 prints makes a lot of sense given the rules that Canada Post uses for postcards. I also like his “green” approach (making good use of old photographic paper. I like all three cards, but particularly appreciate how the light patterns in Soaring Spaces and Abandon(ed) Baggage Building complement each other, while the story behind Kid in a Candy Store makes me smile.

    1 down, 27 to go

    Thanks to everyone for participating.

    PS I found the postmark on Mike's envelope intriguing - "Support Mental Health"
