At the moment I'm signed up for Print Exchange round 50, and that was pretty straightforward. I picked a favourite image, made a new print and it's ready to go.
This Negative Exchange malarkey is very different. For days I've been going through hundreds and hundreds of negatives looking for 'the right one'. What I discovered was that-
a) I've taken some shockers, and
b) Perhaps because I spent years shooting Kodachrome I've never lost the habit of composing tight full-frame images. Finding an image with some 'interpretational leeway' felt tough. After some agonising, I settled on a negative which had originaly disappointed me.
When I took it I thought I had just made something special, but then didn't like my early prints from it. So today I spent a few hours in the darkroom and, lo-and-behold, I now have a print which is nothing like my original vision but is far more interesting. The important thing is, if I hadn't signed up for this exchange then almost certainly I'd never have made this print.
So, new print hanging up to dry, will flatten over the weekend, and ought to get it out ealy next week.
Great fun!!

Excellent stuff the both of you, and a wonderful tale told there as more good reason for people to join in the fun.
My print is done...just waiting on me to touch up the picture.
