Alex, do you still take pictures? If so do you put them on the internet? If so, where?
It would grace me with light greater than that captured on the film to see them.

Hallo there. I just thought I would leave a message to state that your recent uploads were excellent, in my opinion; I enjoyed looking through them. Keep up the good work.

You have an extraordinary gift of turning mundane geometry into visual poetry. I always look forward to seeing any of your new black and whites, and often find myself revisiting your old work. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us.

Thank you for your comments, one of the few reasons I continue posting on this site

And thank you for yours. I'd say we've got a sort of symbiotic feedback loop going here. It's rare to find such concentrated amounts constructive criticism, and I can't tell you how helpful they've been.

If i didn't think it was snobby to use french on the internet i'd write 'et toi aussi' or something like that.
Gracias.

been working on a novel, computer was too much of a distraction so i wasn't turning it on. back now though, and my darkroom is totally setup(rodenstock lenses arrived to replace the old old old fuji lens) and all the odds & ends(easels/multigrade filters/etc) are here.
IIIIIFFFF you still want 2 prints NOW(398797 months after your first request) let me know, I would prefer if you picked them because my taste is a bit different maybe. If you don't want any or don't have money now that's totally understandable after this long gap, not professional of me at all, but then in my own defense I am not a professional.

Are you a professional photographer?
There are a few photos in your gallery that I would frame and hang on my wall.

I'd like to be someday, maybe. Or an architect, or a writer, or a professor.
What one(s) are you talking about? if they're b&w I could possibly make prints in the darkroom.

My dad once told me not to be a professional photographer because I would be perpetually broke. It is sound advice. You could be a very good architect.
I was looking at 20070830 frame 09, and 20070829 frame 23. Do you use paypal? I could send you money that way. What is the biggest paper that you usually run?

with 35mm neg(which both of those are) i usually do 8x10's - and the step up sometimes, 11x14 I think? I have some similar shots taken with the hasselblad that I haven't developed yet, which I feel comfortable printing larger.
I'm still setting up my own darkroom though, need to see if I can get some time in on one of the ones at my uni.
paypal works for me, but wouldn't want you to send the money until I make some prints that I'm happy with selling, which might take some time, the darkroom people don't like me hah.
Thanks for the career advice too!

Alex,
You are a fantastic artist and I trust you to find 2 prints that I will love. One is for my friend, and one is for myself you see. That request should be easily fulfiled. How would $20/print work for you?

That works for me, I'll send you a note with my email and further info.
