Mine should be being unloaded from a container at Landvetter Airport any time around now

Graham

damn son! you got tracking on that thing? haha! I'll get back here when it lands in my mailbox

Wensleydale Blue · « **Reply #51 on:** December 08, 2010, 01:11:18 PM »

No tracking - I just always know where my prints are even when they've left me. Spooky eh?

jojonas~ · « **Reply #52 on:** December 10, 2010, 06:16:16 PM »

graham, thanks! the print is here and it is terrific! I dunno if I had any expectations, I was just thrilled by the element of surprise but this is a really nice print and I'll be sure to find a frame for it

I enjoyed reading the letter aswell and I think it was interesting to the specifics of how you shot and made it, something that I didn't think too much about including with my own.

Jojonas - Really glad you liked it and thanks for the kind words. Never easy prejudging the sort of things someone else might like. I try and look at any images images that the recipients might have posted themselves to get some idea, but its still a leap into the dark.

I've sent mine today. Apparantly, the last day for shipping to the US in time for Xmas was yesterday. We'll see.

Whoo-hoo, I've got my eyes peeled!

Holy Christmas Goodness, Peter!

I am astounded by the package that just arrived at my door moments ago (thank goodness I'd not yet left the house yet!). Three gorgeous, gorgeous matted pictures, a color, a b/w and a cyanotype - I am in awe! Oh, and let's not forget the xmas card of your tree ala Gakkenflex! They are beauuuteeeful! You've taught me a lot about packaging too - such a professional job.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love them all!!

Phew! That was close. I thought I'd left it too late.

Today I received a lovely print from Jonas. Thank you, my friend. It looked as if it had been twice around the world, but, it is in fine shape!

jojonas~ · « **Reply #63 on:** December 26, 2010, 09:24:18 PM »

that's great to hear phil! I was starting to worry

glad you like it

The packaging looked as if it had been around the world, but, the print was in fine fettle!

Got mine from Erin this morning. Thanks Erin. I like it a lot.

What printer are you using? I keep thinking about changing mine to something that will do black and white successfully.

Mojave · « **Reply #66 on:** December 30, 2010, 05:36:22 PM »

Thank you so much Peter!!! I am so glad you like it!

The printer I use is a Canon Pro9500 Mark II. It does a really great job. Since I made your print, I decided to finally create a wall of prints for myself and have been having much success with the prints, both color and b&w, at a bunch of different sizes. The Hahnemuhle Fine Art Pearl paper is just a dream. I love it!

The printer uses 10 pigment ink cartridges. I got it because it was the cheapest 13 x 19 printer I could find at the time. I got it for like 550.00 USD at BH Photo, which was about 200 off the original cost. Not sure how much it would go for in the UK. But with all the new prints Im doing, Im getting results that match what I see on the screen, only a bit darker. My screen is one of the bright technology kind of screens and every photo I look at electronically is really bright so I know the prints will come out a bit darker, but not too much darker. Im very happy with the printer and Im new at it. If you have lots of experience with printers and making prints, you could probably do so much more with this printer than I can.

The print to me has been lost forever

thanks to the "holiday help" at DHL. They managed to forge my signature, ( even misspell my name in the signature) and then say I signed for it in person when I was away in Utah.

I'll be optimistic and hope that the print eventually shows up.

Roger Thoms · « **Reply #68 on:** January 07, 2011, 04:55:46 AM »

I sent my print over a month ago and it has yet to arrive. Maybe the holidays aren't the best time to do a print exchange. I'll resend if mine doesn't show up soon.

moominsean · « **Reply #69 on:** January 08, 2011, 12:23:18 AM »

i promise to have mine out by the end of january! just busy with holidays and working, and now i'll be out of town for a week.

original_ann · « **Reply #70 on:** January 09, 2011, 11:33:14 PM »

Oh Becky that is HORRIBLE!!!

calbisu · « **Reply #71 on:** January 14, 2011, 10:13:42 AM »

Ha! I received an uber cool polaroid from Johann!!!

It made all the way from Switzerland to the Philippines. Is at my workplace, which now looks more organic!!! Thanks Johann! and it was really carefully wrapped

calbisu · « **Reply #72 on:** January 14, 2011, 10:15:17 AM »

Yes, I am very sorry Becky... one less Polaroid in the world

Ok, I will resend!!! $:-\$

johann · « **Reply #73 on:** January 14, 2011, 01:03:26 PM »

I'm really happy that you like it, calbisu ! I am also relieved that it made it to the Philippines. It's quite a trip for a little polaroid.
I may have overwrapped it a bit, but I wouldn't take any chances.

Suzi Livingstone · « **Reply #74 on:** January 16, 2011, 02:40:13 PM »

This photo doesn't really do it justice - but I framed my lovely print from Alan and hung it up.. it looks great!

Just got a nice email notifying me that my prints arrived in good shape. Boy it took a long time.

I haven't got any print

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #77 on:** January 23, 2011, 04:56:37 PM »

Yaniv, my apologies for being so slow - yours will be in the post this week.

Roger Thoms · « **Reply #78 on:** January 27, 2011, 07:14:28 AM »

Just got Tim Rudman's news letter and he commented on the long delivery time in the UK because of the winter snow and ice storms in late Dec and early Jan. Apparently there is still a backlog in the postal system. That explain's why my print took over a month to get to Thom.

Roger

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #79 on:** January 28, 2011, 03:23:08 PM »

Mine was posted out today

moominsean · « **Reply #80 on:** January 31, 2011, 10:42:18 AM »

i will be picking up my print today and mailing it out to the UK!
