I've been published!!!
I totally forgot about the request I had received for one of my photos to be used in a book until a check came last week. (I was contacted about this well over a year ago!) I was happy I got a check, but at the same time I was a little disappointed that I didn't receive the book that my photo was used in.
Then, it arrived:
Winnebago County: Connected
Here's a little excerpt from the front sleeve:
How cool is that? Here's the original photo
And look! They even credited me!
This is the first time that one of my photos has been published in a book! (I've had my photographs used in a newspaper article that I wasn't credited for...) I'm so excited! Does this make me a real Photographer now? ;)
