UK Black and White Print Exchange
2018-11-27 by christian.ellis@...
Hello
For a number of years, we've been running a roughly quarterly black and white print exchange which is centred around the UK for historical reasons but now has a worldwide membership (US / Australia / New Zealand).
We'd like to invite some new participants into the exchange - I hope you don't object to my posting here.
The format is:
- everyone prints the required number of images and sends them to a distributor (currently me, based in the UK)
- there are typically around 6-8 contributors per exchange
- without being too prescriptive, prints should be monochrome; digital / film capture is fine; most photographers print their own on an inkjet printer, but we do have contributors who use a lab to print; prints from digital negatives would be fine; there are a number of QTR users
- once I've received all the prints (and postage costs via Paypal) I then send one of each to each contributor
- finally everyone comments on each print - just a paragraph or a couple of sentences - the group feels this is an important part of the exchange
We're planning to run our next exchange at the end of January. There's no long term commitment.
If you'd like to take part then please Join the Group at https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/UK_BW_PrintExchange/info and I can send you more information.
Thanks
Chris
