oookay, this is my first time hosting, so be gentle with me. :)

For this swap you will be sending one fine art photography print, to two partners. The photo must be taken by you. But please no snapshots. This should be something that your partners will frame and hang on the wall, and should be 5x7 or larger. You can send the same print to both partners, or a different one,your choice.

Newbies welcome with a well filled out profile. I will angel this swap if need be.

I'm sorry if this question is stupid...I just want to clarify before I join...I'm an amatuer photographer...taking classes, but nonetheless still learning...so we just don't want a photo of your kids or something, right?

natasha 02/ 7/2010 #

No, not stupid at all. And right, no snapshots of your kids or whatever. Each photogrraph should be a piece of art. Something that's suitable for framing and hanging.

I have to say I would prefer no nudity in mine.

misspfui 02/ 8/2010 #

i'm in. no nudity in mine either, please.

I would have to agree that I would prefer no nudity in mine either. Thank you.

lmhruska 02/11/2010 #

I don't mind nudity at all. Bring it on. I promise not to send any if it's not wanted.

jennschales 02/13/2010 #

Yeah, no blatant nudity I guess...I have a kid...breaks into giggles if you even mention the word naked!

I would like to join, but i have a question before i do so. "Art" photography will be different for everybody, i suppose. I do take lots of pictures and try to make nice compositions, colours, etc. I've take a look at your Flickr photos to get an idea. Are these the kind you're looking for in this swap (i don't mean the snapshots, but the others) ? And what is the definition for a snapshot ? A really beautiful picture of people or pets can also be an artsy photo ?

natasha 02/18/2010 #

Moose, definitely a picture of people or animals can be considered art. By snapshot I kind of just meant a quick picture taken with no consideration towards compositions, color,etc. like you said. As long as the picture is taken with consideration to these things, keeping in mind that the point of the swap is to provide your partner with a piece of art to hang on their wall, you will be fine! :)

Moose 02/18/2010 #

Ah, ok :-) Thanks for explaining

Gofeen 02/18/2010 #

Are landscapes, sunsets O.K?

natasha 02/19/2010 #

Gofeen, sure!

Is this swap profile based? Would we send/receive something that relates to the receivers likes (since they might hang it on their wall)?

misspfui 03/ 2/2010 #

will the partners be assigned at some point? :)

i'm waiting to order prints. and if it's ok, i'll ask my partners what sort of photo print they'd like. i would want to send them something that they'd actually hand on their wall, not something that doesn't fit their style.
