camera swap

Now that WPPD 2004 is over perhaps we should start back with our camera swap idea we had before all the swaps
started.

My original post suggesting this is added at the bottom for your reference.

As of the last post on this issue I had the following members interested in a swap. Gina Bellando, Jeff Mickey,
Lisa Reddig, Marie-Noelle Leroy, Micky Bayard, Jan Kapoor, Kate Mahoney, Taco, Jean-Marc Becker, Dia Naka, Jim
Blodgett, Chuck Flagg and myself.

If you are still interested or if there are anyone else to be added please respond. Once we have the list
finalized we can move the discussion off the list so that our messages won't clog up the accounts of the other
list members. Please keep the subject line of "camera swap" so that I can easily organize the mesasges.

I have also enjoyed the images I've received each year doing this swap. An idea for a project came to mind
while reading Jan and Marcy's emails. A swap for all seasons and a camera swap. Not a camera swap where we make
a camera for each participant but a circle of pinholes all trading a camera to the next on the list. We use the
camera for a certain period of time, say a month, and then mail it to the next person in line. Of course with a
circle of swappers the last one mails it to the first one on the list and everyone gets a new camera to try.
When you get back your original camera your done. I don't know how it would work with an image swap. If you had
12 participants each using 12 different cameras and mailing out to the other participants you would need to
make 144 prints. Maybe a web page would be better showcase. It would be fun to get a different camera each
month for a year and it might make an interesting web gallery to boot.
