I think it's been well over a year since the last one.

If there's any interest I would be happy to send my Agfa Silette out for a little jolly.

I'd even include a Watameter rangefinder.

Any takers?

Oh yes, me too please. Cracking idea Simon.

I'm in.

I'm currently involved in another round the world camera project on APUG. I assume this one will be UK only.


Steve.
 
I'm in. I've not done anything photography related in a few months so this seems like fun.
 
I'd definitely like to have a go, please!

Given past problems with the Devon version of the Sargasso Sea, should we either avoid posting there or do it via a signed-for service?

Also, you should probably give some thought to how many shots we should take, and other rules/suggestions? I'm not sure the double exposure thing ever really worked...
 
Be rude not to, count me in.
 
Sounds like a great idea i am up near Faslane Naval Base i can pop over the fence and crack a few off.....

Can then post it back from Gitmo :)
 
PS: Are the shots from last time posted anywhere? I'd love to see them.

I'll add you to the list Mark.



It is a shame, but time and logistics would be an issue. Might be something to think about for the future.



I'll see if I can find them.

Shouldn't be too bad. Relatively small financial commitment to ship it onto the next address, minimum weight so it wouldn't cost much.

It would just take a while to complete.

Hmm...let's see what the consensus is.
 
Needs to be sent registered, insured, special delivery, something like that.
I took part in the nifty fifty travelling lens a good few years back and it 'got lost in the post'.

I wouldn't have a problem with paying the extra to send it insured/special delivery to get it sent off to Adam(if he came after me in the line up)... so long as he did the same when sending it off to whoever is next in line in the UK.

That's very generous of you Lee and it solves the conundrum at a stroke. Thank you.

@UaeExile I've added you to the list.

It's no problem honestly.... also, it might be worth me being towards the end of a roll of film, so that Adam starts off with a new roll(least then should there be a problem we don't lose all the images)

Yes, recorded delivery or handed over in person I think. Just to avoid any unnecessary unnecessaryness.

We'll establish the ground rules before we start.

Excellent idea.

Please remind if I forget when organising the order.

Thanks again.
 
Two more people would make 18.

That would be 4 shots each over 2 rolls.

Can anyone contribute the second roll?

Cheers.
