Here are pics of my first print sales. :) The last one is a crop of a central part of an pic that I took while trying my new Sigma 70-200 f2.8. It was just a test shot. It blew up to A3 size very well. The lady at work who bought it was very happy.
I would like to thank Mudder for his tips in taking the Snow Leopard & the Mandrill.

G'day Meic,
That's great news about the sales, good on ya mate!

Both of them look like they're enjoying a quick nap :) Strange beast in that last shot though :wink:

Hi Meicw, all three shots are good but the snow leopard and the mandrill are stunning!

:wink: Bob.

Great photos and congratulations on your sale. Out of curiousity, how did you blow it up to A3?

Meic, good onya makes you feel good when you sell something.Maybe this is a start for things to come, i know it has helped me a lot and i didn't start out to make money out of them but if people wanna buy them, why not. Well done and great pics.
Oh and a good lens as well. :lol:

I appreciate all the kind remarks guys. What I meant PiroStitch, was that I printed out to A3 size. :)

I think #1 and #2 are nice pix, #2 in particular.
I think #3 seems a bit bland on comparison with the others - no real point of interest IMHO.
Well done on the sale though; it makes you feel like a real photographer doesn't it?
