Well, it's that time of year again. This is an opportunity for each and every photographer on the forum to share their work in a more personal way. Rather than just posting a sterile digital image, let's get one of your past (or new) favourites printed and share them with someone else on the forum.

Here's how this works.

Everyone who wants to participate need only reply to this thread with "I want to swap". I'll tally the list and randomly generate a list of people and partners. There is a sender and a receiver. Receivers will private message their assigned sender with their mailing address. The senders will print a photo of theirs that they want to share and drop it in the mail.

I hope to see everyone participate this year. The more people who sign up, the more fun it is.

So, who will join me for some photo swapping fun??

That's 4 of us!

I hope others are just slow on the uptake. :D

I am in, but could you make sure JustinRyan is not my recipient.

He completely dissed my image last year, ripping it to shreds.

Just Kidding...

He was the recipient of my images for the last two years, so I am guessing he is ready for an image from another member.

I want to swap. I wouldn't mind either if the selections were non-random, taking into account past swaps. Thank you to Iguanasan for undertaking this every year.

What's the deadline Iggy. I don't think I have taken anything worthy over the last year. I am going on a photo workshop in Cuba next week so maybe I will get something there. When do I have to decide.

I don't know what happened to my original post, but I am TOTALLY in! Despite my lack of act8vity, I look forward to this every year. And, while I love tiger's photos, I'd love the chance to see more of the world!

Glad to see everyone signing up... I'll do my best to ensure there are no "duplicates" from previous years.

Also, I didn't set a deadline. If people don't procrastinate, I'll make the deadline for signing up November 30th. That gives you almost 3 more weeks to decide and then, if you are reasonably quick getting them in the mail, they'll arrive during the holiday season.

If I'm doing the counting right, that's 8. Last chance... I'm a little late in "closing" this off but here I am to close it off. Get in this weekend or be left out in the cold for this year. I'll be announcing the swaps on Monday!

Okey-dokey! Here are the swappers. Note that I've done my best to ensure no one is swapping with someone they've swapped before. I've gone right back to the beginning. I may have made a mistake so if you've swapped before, let me know and I'll see if I can re-arrange.

Hey...it looks like asnow is on there as a recipient twice, and I don't get to receive at all :shrug: ....

Sorry. :o I had it correct in my Google Spreadsheet and transposed it incorrectly into the forum. It should be accurate now.

Thanks Iggy for organizing this again.

WOW. I've already got mine from JAS. What else but a one of her specialties, a great picture of the Peace bridge. As she says its an "edgy" version. It has a cool matte finish that is almost like a charcoal. Thanks JAS.

Marko is getting an unseen original by me, of me. It will be a very risqué boudoir self portrait.

Now that is why I didn't take part this year.

I received asnow's beautiful photo in the mail a day or two ago, and it is awesome! The kids love seeing that colorful little frog hanging on our wall! Thank you, very much!
