A classic piece of Americana!I also received Howard's Barbershop. Very nice, it looks like a shop in a historic village. And I'm guessing the negative involved a mask when being contacted. I contacted a 4x5 neg onto some cards, but the non-neg part of the card was black, not white. Nicely done.

I love my XA2 for street photography! Take care everyone; your cards are appreciated now more than ever.Hi Terry S,
The photographic evidence of your anti-gravity water adventures makes for a nice little postcard with a nice little story.
I have been using my Olympus XA basically as a point and shoot for stealth and speed on the street and hope to get some good postcard material out of it too.
Your teaspoon formula D72 sounds very intrigueing. I have just ordered 4 liters of Ilford MG developer but wouldn't mind trying D72 for a change.
Thanks for your efforts and stay safe!

Yesterday, I discovered Howard Earl's Barbershop in my mailbox.
+1 on that!Thanks for the nice comments, everyone!
Thanks-people just can't tear themselves away from their phones sometimes. Not that I'm complaining as it's a habit that can always yield interesting images.I hope everyone is keeping safe and well in these trying times.
My home office desk presently is the drop table from my De Vere 507. This is probably the most use it's seen in recent years!
I've received some very nice cards in the post. My thanks to all!
@iandvaag - A great image with an almost 3D quality about it. I love the highlights on the edge of the petals.
@Black Dog - It appears your subject was already social isolating before the rest us! A nice image and the colour postcard is refreshing.
@Howard Earl - Another great contact print in the current exchange. A well composed image with many details to enjoy.
I'm up to 13 postcards now. Keep em' coming!

Sorry to hear that, but totally understandable-looking forward to having you back in the Exchange. Take care and stay safe!Folks, unfortunately I’m going to have to bow out of this round. I’m going to save the list and when taking part in the next round I’ll print double.
I am a high school photo teacher and I utilize our school darkroom for all of my work. With COVID and the extended closings around the country, we went from a distance model where teachers could access the building, to a complete shut down. I am barred from the space as each building has received a complete cleaning and disinfection.
My deepest apologies , every time I open my mailbox and see a card I feel elated and terrible at all once.

That’s not a bad idea but I’d certainly want to find a way to compensate for time and materials.How about mailing your negative to me and I'll print them for you and send them back. You'll not have made the prints, but you'll have sent prints out and not be able to feel bad (which you should not in light of the circumstances). Whaddayathink? Just an idea.
