Hi David,
Glad you like it. Pinhole photography is a nice adventure. Try it! :-)

I posted my print today.
Whenever I go to the Post Office with a print, it is in a large board-backed envelope marked 'Please do not bend'. It's very frustrating to see what happens as soon as it passes into the tellers hands. Today it was being bent over all the bits and pieces on the counter whilst the stamp was applied. Last time the teller's elbow was firmly pressed down on it. I shudder to think what happens next in the journey, and can only hope they arrive undamaged. Perhaps using plain envelopes, with no polite request to avoid bending is the answer......

Just a little concerned, all prints for Round 109 should be in the post by next Tuesday and there are over half still to go, seven. Busy weekend ahead!

I'm glad it's not just me then Tony.

I actually printed my offering right at the beginning of the month! I just haven't found a bit of spare time to write the note and get it packaged up and taken to the Post Office.

Day off / free tomorrow, so hopefully it will be on it's way then.

I arrived home from work a short time ago to find a stunning print from Martin waiting for me. It is a view of a traditional Church in a remote part of Norway, with the emphasis on its white wooden fence. The composition is excellent, with the white, angular woodwork of the Church and fence contrasting with the soft Northern landscape.The print is on Ilford FB paper which gives it a quality feel. Both the image, and the presentation are excellent. Thank, Martin, I’m delighted with your print.

And arrived flat and safe with no sign of any bends or marks. An unusual print of a wall and door that has been printed quite contrasty to bring out the texture of the stone work.

Thanks.

and received this morning Mike. A fine shot taken along the Afon Llugwy in Snowdonia. Comments when the picture is posted on the Gallery. Agree with your remarks about getting into the darkroom and digital prints at club events. Need a separate class for darkroom prints? I am not sure about future visits to NWMG, must see how it goes.
