5 Photos in an Envelope

If you're anything like me, you take a lot of pictures, and potentially have a lot of prints made. For this swap, we are going to send 2 partners 5 photos each. Write minimum one sentence about each photo -- what it is, where it was taken, why you included it, etc -- either on the back of the photo or on a separate piece of paper/notecard. That's it! Make sure to include swap name and username somewhere in the envelope.

A few minor rules:

• NO people in the photos unless they are incidentally in a public space. That means no pictures of your kids, no pictures of your neighbor's kids, no pictures of your significant other that they thought you weren't going to show anyone, no selfies.

• You may use prints that you already have (doesn't matter how old, as long as you took them) or get new ones made. You can even take new photos!

• Professionally printed on photo paper or instant film only, please -- but keep in mind that instant film could get a bit bulky if you're sending internationally and mind your postage. I am just begging you, no dark Instax mini photos where you can't actually make out what's happening. Please.

• Experimental, artsy, or just plain ol' regular photos are all fine. Just remember to explain what each one is, and potentially why you included it.

• Send photos you'd like to receive that might be a bit interesting. When receiving, keep in mind that people have very different tastes, and as long as the person is genuine, the swap is on time, and the photo isn't coated in Alfredo sauce or something, rate a 5.

• 4.95 minimum, questionable swappers will be removed. Swap will be angeled after proper ratings are given.

Have fun and happy swapping!
