Thanks: Gave 1,143, Got 1,013 | Looks like one of my images is to be published
I had this email last week: Hi Steve,
I'm looking for good images by Canon photographers for a gallery in our new photography magazine called PhotoPlus. The first issue of PhotoPlus goes on sale on 27 Sept and it will be published in the UK by Future Publishing, who already publish Digital Camera magazine. We're potentially looking at printing one of your images in the Your Photos gallery where we ask one of our panel of photography experts to give you some positive feedback on the image(s).
I saw your nice 'Seated' image on flickr and was wondering if you’d be able to email a hi-res version?.............
So, I sent the images off as requested and I had another email today saying that they were hoping to use the image in one of the next three issues of the magazine.
Chuffed!
The image is here
Be interesting to see what the 'experts' say compared to whats been suggested on Flickr

Well done....  | Yep, I told her and then made her take a portrait shot of me as they requested one of those too. I was going to ask Gordon to do it with all his fancy flash stuff at the weekend but I got too excited and couldn't wait

Well done Steve - am sure you are well chuffed
I reckon it will be the 1st of many for you!
Did they mention about paying you to use it? When one of mine was used in Practical Photography a cheque for £60 came through the door - that was a nice surprise.
