Alternative Process Print Exchange??

[tgtaylor]

Any interest in have an alternative process print exchange? I'm thinking of small groups, say 3 photographers each, exchanging quality prints.

I can do salt, do they have to be LF and camera negative. I prefer not.

[andreios]

Nice idea, I'd send some kallitypes... Personally I think we should strive to keep it LF, but not limit to the use of in camera negatives (even though I use only those).

[adelorenzo]

I would be interested.

I don't know if my work is good enough but I'd be willing to give it a shot.

Count me in. Albumen from wet plate negatives

Smaller format negatives would be OK I suppose but personally I prefer LF and my print would be either 5x7 or 8x10 - most likely the latter as I have yet to shoot a 5x7 negative. How about this: Form group(s) that only want to exchange LF prints (anything from a 4x5 negative or larger) and smaller formats. I print exclusively from in-camera negatives but digital negatives would be ok in the respective format.

I'd be up for it. Small groups for sure 3-4 at most. I'd be doing Pt/Pd. Not sure I'd be that excited to get a Cyanotype but very pleased to see Salt, Albumen, Gum, or Pt for that matter.

I'd love to do a 4x5 cyanotype.

[hazardsg]

I'd love to do a 4x5 cyanotype.

I'd probably do an 8x10 cyanotype. We could do a small group just doing cyanotypes if needed.

[stawastawa]

sure

I would like to be involved too, Kallitype from LF or DN. Ill be in San Fran early May so perhaps I can do a hand exchange.

I'm in with you Shane - I'll trade an 8x10 Kallitype for one of yours. I'll PM you my contact info so that we can hook-up when you get here. I have a good subject too - one that I shot last week with a soft focus Imagon and printed today (in the rain! took 22.5 minutes) but this is not a soft focus subject so I'm going to re-shoot it with a sharp lens.

Sound a good deal. See if I can come up with a suitable image.

I love this idea. I do 8x10 collodion negs...salt, VD and Palladium. Would be very interested. Oh...I wax...hope that's ok!
