CopCarSSNext time I do a giveaway, I'll make sure to do it as an essay contest on the finer point of gator foaming while attired in swimwear. ;-)
Foamers, of course.

What do gators eat that causes them to foam?
Dang for a different reason- I will be working at that time (I started a part-time job at my church as custodian).

Hey Gang,
So, due to a complex set of events, I find myself in possession of a number of prints that I had planned to display as part of a show that went south in a hurry (and I'm not talking about New Mexico). Having just moved to a much smaller apartment, I really don't have the room for them right now and I don't really know what to do with them. I thought that a print giveaway might be kind of a neat thing to do with my friends who appreciate trains as much as I do.
Before we get to how the giveaway will work, I first want you all to understand what you would be getting. These are traditional RA-4 color prints done with a Lightjet by a professional lab in Denver. I think these will be my last Lightjet prints as I'm hoping to pick up my own archival pigment inkjet printer in the next month or two. The Lightjet was great in its day, but some of the new printers from Canon and Epson just blow the doors off of the RA-4 color prints in terms of gamut and archivability.
Additionally, these are NOT, (I stress NOT) archival prints because of how I mounted them. I had intended for these to be very temporary displays at the show, so I mounted them to self adhesive gatorfoam. Additionally, I'm not pleased with the gatorfoam I got. It's got a lot of imperfections so there are a few bumps and such on the print. From a distance, you will not be able to notice. If you're looking at the images up close, though, it will be apparent. The person that did the mounting didn't do the greatest job, either. Unfortunately I have to look in the mirror to place any blame for that. I'll try to make sure I call out any egregiously bad mountings in my descriptions.
I tried to figure out how to make this fair, and I've come up with the following method. This Thursday at 10:00AM MDT (give or take a few minutes) I will post Part II of this giveaway that will have an image and a short description of the prints I have available. Once I have made my post, I will ask that you send me a Private Message listing which print you would like. I ask that you choose only ONE. If you choose more than one, I will have to ignore all of your requests. Each print will go to the person who first requests it. If you win a print, I will contact you about an address where I can mail them. Also, please allow me a little bit of time to get these all packaged and mailed. I'm doing this on my time and dollar, so it may take me a week or two to get everything out.
I believe there are 18 images, though I will have to double check that when I get home. The gatorfoam mounts are all 12"x18". The actual print area varies a bit based on the aspect ratio of the image. These are all prints of Colorado railroad subjects. I think you have seen most if not all of these. There may be one or two surprises in the lot, though. It's hard to keep track of where I've shared all of my images over the years.
To reiterate:
In the interim, if you have any questions, please feel free to post here or Private Message me!
Thanks,
Chris
