Description:

This swap is going to take a lot of effort, commitment and creativity!! We have all seen those childrens books A is for apple, B is for ball, C is for cat, etc etc. Right? Well this is your chance to make something similar... using your camera!

Thats right, take 26 photos one representing ea. letter of the English alphabet. The subjects are up to you but must be using English words. Please take creative shots. Digital or film, but this is a POSTAL SWAP, not an e-mail one.

Keep photos "clean", as in non-offensive, quality printed and 4x6 in size. No one w/ a rating of less than 4.8 and zero "no sends". Sorry USA only due to the commitment and postage. I may consider a private swap on an individual basis, if you dont meet the requirements of this public/group one. Feel free to set up an International one. Some that join this one might want to do both (maybe even me...) and would only have to make double prints and pay more postage!!

You can start shooting your photos now, but there will also be time after you have your partner to complete the swap ON TIME and maybe take a few specific to some of the likes they have listed in their profile?! There is even time to get a rating if your a newbie!!

  • Please include a letter or sticky note on the back of each stating "A is for..." , etc etc, even if you think its obvious. DO NOT WRITE On ThE BACK oF the aCtual pHOto, it sometimes shows through...

As an extra you may want to bind them in a booklet or include a brag book/photo album. THIS IS NOT required but may earn you a heart, if your into that.
