Thanks Andy - the 12x12 arrived just before the weekend; very nice collection of photos, very pleasant and fluid presentation and very good print quality. Great!

You have possibly done this elsewhere; but could you list the selected photos for the exhibit? Would be interesting to know...

Thanks for the kind comments everyone.

 

I will make an announcement re the dates and location etc for the exhibition shortly. I just need to confirm the time of the launch with Leica Manchester.

 

We have made 77 sales so far, so that's £770 that will be going to the charity.

 

Thank you.

I received my 12x12 version of the Book in South Africa this PM, slightly irritating that I got charged the equivalent of £68- customs duty and VAT.

 

Nonetheless all worth it, the book is extremely well put together and the quality of work outstanding; I'm very honoured to have my images included.

 

Thanks and best,

Mike

Hi Andy,

 

Thanks for all the hard work. I have placed the order for the 12 x 12 in version. Unfortunately, I will not be able to visit the Leica Store in Manchester. Now, if this event were to be held last year, I could have made the trip. My wife and I were in London in July to attend my son's convocation. Meanwhile, I have posted the link to the 2018 LUF Book to my FB page as well as several chat groups. 

 

Best regards,

N S Ng

I received my copy last Monday but could only look at it in detail today. In my perception a gallery we certainly don't have to hide, actually very impressive.

My best thanks and congratulations to everyone who participated and especially to Andy for the very well-chosen arrangement and the excellent project management.

We have now sold 81 copies of the book.

 

I was in Leica Manchester on Friday sorting things for the exhibition which will open in just under 4 week’s time. The prints are all in the office waiting to be brought back home. I just need to sort out the labels etc now.

 

And then hang the prints.

I am pleased to say that the first profit has just arrived in my PayPal account and has been transferred to the JustGiving account.

 

Great stuff everyone! Thank you!

 

This brings the current total raised to  £4,218

I have just received my 12 X 12 copy. ( It was damaged slightly in transit, but Blurb are sorting that out for me.) I know others have commented, but I was really struck by the brilliance of many of the pairings and sequencing. That is indicative of the time, care and imagination of the guy who put it together - Andy, a fantastic job and my thanks. And if others like me have been a bit slow on ordering then get yourself a copy and you won't regret it!

Thanks Martin

 

Obviously the quality of the pairings depends on the quality of the 105 shots I had to work with :), but I did take care to try to get the book to flow well.

 

Some of the pairings were just obvious of course.

Today, and only today, there is a 25% discount on all books at blurb.

That works with our LUF 2018 book, too.

 

So, to all, who did not order a LUF book until today: that is the chance. And as I know it, this does not affect the profit for the charity projekt.

 

Kind regards,

Ralf

Thanks for the tip. In addition to my 2x12 inch versions, I ordered today the 1x12 inch and 7 inch version again. It's a good thing, after all :-)

And the second month's profit has arrived and been donated to Worldwide Cancer.

 

Once again, thanks to everyone.

Another £49 submitted to JustGiving today, but I am disappointed to see that they now charge a 5% fee to donate.

 

Oh well, I suppose that they have to fund those £20m salaries somehow...

Another £19 has arrived from Blurb, so here it is in the JustGiving account.

 

Thanks to those that bought the book recently, whoever you are!

Some good news folks.

 

Another two books have been sold so Blurb have sent me the profit, which has now been sent to JustGiving.

 

Thank you!

I am pleased to report that there is still interest in our charity book and another two copies have sold, generating a further £19 for the chosen charity.

I will be putting that into the JustGiving account this afternoon.

Thank you - you know who you are!

Maybe it's time to do another one...

This is how much the 2018 book has raised.
