Using the random number generator at Random.org and numbering the respondents chronologically by post date (1–17), the first number pulled was 1! That means the winner of the framed print is Adrienne! The second number pulled was 17, so Thibsie wins the Dry Age Kit!

Congratulations, Adrienne and Thibsie!

Hello, there.
I haven’t run a contest in some time. So, here we are! I am moving very soon and I desperately need to clean house! I have picked 6 Polaroid/Impossible images to make 5 prints of each. They will be 5″x5″ and I don’t have any plans of making any more at this size. So, they will be limited editions of 5, for each print. They will be numbered and signed on the back by me. Each print is $30 plus $5 for US shipping (if outside of the US, $10 for shipping). Here they are:

**For the first 12 orders, I will MAT & FRAME the print FOR FREE.** The frame measures 10.5″x10.5″x1.5″ and is white. It’s a simple, lovely window frame and I will use high quality white mat board. After the 12th order, it will just be the print that goes out. If you would like it matted or framed after the 12th order, I can do so, but for an additional fee.

Now, for the giveaway! I will give away ONE MATTED & FRAMED PRINT! That’s not it! The Impossible Project has given me a Dry Age Kit to give away as well! The Dry Age Kit will keep your beautiful images from being damaged by the moisture and heat.

All you have to do is repost this blog entry on some social network site. Tweet it (convenient button below), Tumblr it, blog it, Facebook it, whatever you would like. Leave a comment below with a link to where you posted. Your comment here, with the link, will be your entry to win.

First, I will pick the winner of the framed print using a random number generator and the second pick will win the Dry Age Kit. The winners will be picked on Tuesday, July 10th, at 3 PM PST and I will announce them here and on my Twitter. I will then contact the winners via email (please make sure you include that when filling out the comment form).

I will keep this updated, so you can see how many prints/frames are left:

Photo 1: 5 Prints left 3 left
Photo 2: 5 Prints left
Photo 3: 5 Prints left
Photo 4: 5 Prints left 1 left
Photo 5: 5 Prints left
Photo 6: 5 Prints left 2 left

Prints w/ mat & frame: 12 left 3 left

To purchase a print (or prints), email me via the contact form on my Info page. Please let me know which print(s) you would like. Frames *are not* limited to one per person. Paypal is the preferred method of payment.

As always, if there are any photos of mine that you would like a print of, please let me know and I’m sure we can make it happen (and quite possibly with a unique frame). Right now, I am working very hard to move my art and frames, so that way, I will not have to move with them and risk any damage. Also, moving is expensive, and anything I make is going towards that.

Thank you and good luck!!

Congratulations, Justin!

The mixes and the “instant film remixes” will be going out early next week. Thank you all for participating!

For those of you who have been following my Flickr for the past few years or who may know me personally, you know I live and breathe music. A couple of years ago, I started an exchange program called the “Penpalathon.” I would exchange mixed CDs and possibly small prints with people all over the world. It was incredible! So many people got involved and I sent out and received wonderful music and art. I’ve been thinking it’s time to revitalize the program, with a bit of a remix.

I have started a new painting project with my poor expired or rejected Polaroids and shots from The Impossible Project. I can’t bear to throw these blank frames away, so I’m giving them new lives as paintings. I will be sending one out with a mixed CD. Although it will be signed, it will not be matted or framed. However, if you are interested in getting a complete package, you can on my Etsy. This is only for a limited time. After the giveaway is over, the only way to get one of these Instant Film Remixes will be through my Etsy.

As you can see in the gallery below, they look rather smart when matted and framed.

Now, for the music. Please choose one of the four types of mixes you can receive:

• Rock/Pop
• Hip Hop
• Instrumental
• Reggae

What do you have to do to receive one of these darling, wonderful packages?
(1) Leave a comment here,
(2) E-mail me with an address and your mix preference (info@sol-exposure.com, or by using the contact form on my Info page),
(3) “Tweet” or make a Facebook post about this project (If you “tweet” about it, please make sure to mention me, @solexposure),
(4) Send a mix back! (Not necessary, but definitely appreciated!)

You’re thinking, This is the best thing to ever happen in the history of the Internets. How could this get any sweeter? The Impossible Project has graciously given me a pack of PX 680 FF and a Frog Tongue to give away! For the sake of remixes and new lives, I am also giving away a Polaroid OneStep Express! The winner will be picked from the comments using a random number generator at 3 PM MST on Thursday, November 10^th.

Want to get some Impossible film of your own? I highly, highly recommend the PZ 680 for your hungry Spectra camera. I can’t get enough of it. Go get yourself some IMPOSSIBLE LOVE! Here’s a direct link to the fabulous PX 680 FF because winning one pack is not enough. Or, pick up some more FROG TONGUES to meet your light shielding needs!

Ready, set, GO!

For this theme, I drove north of Phoenix and took pictures of architect Paolo Solari’s creation, Arcosanti. Italian born, Frank Lloyd Wright trained Paolo Soleri started construction on Arcosanti in 1970. It is based on a concept he coined as “arcology” (architecture and ecology) and it’s goal is to demonstrate how people can live in a community while harmonizing with the land around them, rather than leaving a destructive footprint. The people that live and learn here live “off the grid” and continue to construct and improve their “town” on a daily basis. Feel free to read more about the amazing, not impossible project and their workshops here:
