Hi All, Well after our trip to Monarto Zoo with the Adelaide chapter a friend went through some of my pics and stole 1.LOL Anyhow it ended up in the Courier newspaper in the Adelaide Hills, here is a scan on the pic as i got the paper today. Bit of advertising for us as well. LOL Might be a bit hard to see but D70users.com got a mention as well.
Cheers
John

Well done John, great shot. Who says 6mp is not enough for publishing?

It's always nice to see your name in print - as long as it's not in the crime section...

Nice work John...

Thanks Chris, and Steve this is not the only one i have had published i had some done in a SA/NT Local Governement Administrators Source Book 2005 as well. The local District Council looked at some of my pics and asked to use them as i had taken a lot of pics of projects being done by that council. Freebies of course but who knows, right people right time and word of mouth can go a long way.
Cheers

Nearly gave me a heart attack there BBJ, I thought it was my pic!

But closer examination shows that it's not - damn close though....

Cheers

Yes, definitely your pic BBJ - well done by the way - what caught my eye was the almost identical placement of the green leaves on the top left, I'd just been showing my print to somebody today, so it stuck in my mind.

Cheers
