Nice for you Shelby. Any $?

I too was recently, no contest or anything but, published in Digital Photo UK. They came and found me from another site. Nearly paid for the photoshoot itself. They said I shot digital when it was really film though..

Congrats Shelby! , that's gotta be a good feeling to have your work published in a magazine! Is it in the latest issue? I'll look for it at the bookstore.
