Film swap, anyone?

I'm feeling rather nostalgic these days. A few things have been on my mind lately..

- Writing more letters/postcards to friends and families that are far away, since I just bought these amazing stamps from Jamie at the Love and Rummage Trunk Show.

- Thinking about reading this book

and

-Looking into my box of film photos, I'm feeling more nostalgic towards the old fashioned way of image making. I need to use film more often, and then put them all in an album that I could flip through.

***

When I develop my rolls of film, I always ask for a set of printed copy, just because I like holding onto a print better than looking at it on the screen.

Do you shoot film? Would you be interested in a film photo swap? I'd like to mail you some of my photos, and in return you can share me yours. I would love to see your side of the world arrive in my mailbox.

How does that sound?

If you're intrigued by the idea, feel free to leave me your email, and we'll disscus more.
