*sings* I'm in the money, I'm in the money You are now talking to a photographer who is inches away from selling her first proper prints. Was contacted last week with regard to 3 [ but up to 6 ] prints, sized around 60 x 40 cm!! Been on the phone to printers today, and they can print my shots at that size - ecstatic! So...I now need to find out the last prints this guy wants, wait for my own prototype print to turn up [ "Weeping" from my portfolio ] and then get his set printed!! Very excited to see one of my shots all blown up, and hopefully with excellent quality. The company I'm using is a commercial printer, so they should give me really good results Soooo I can now hopefully start making some money!! Yaaaaaaay!! Once I know these prints will definitely work out, I'll officially open myself to sales; so with luck I can start doing what I enjoy the most. Excited? YES!!!!

Sometimes I worry that we must look like a right cliquey bunch because it always seems to be the same people posting...but in truth it would be great to see some new names around here...not that I'm bored with the existing ones you understand - you're all fab! So come on 'lurkers'...show yourselves!

So come on 'lurkers'...show yourselves! Yeah I know what you mean; it's the same on BrianMayZone Mayniacs. There's about 5 or 6 of us that post frequently, and then the others lurk about...sign in but never post...that kind of thing. Of course, there are others that post and I love reading their messages...I just wish they'd do it more often haha! I think there's a nice community there though...it's growing... Here is wonderful though and I'm glad that reading me say that made you happy Just stating fact. I have absolutely no problem with joining in with threads...if you don't, there's only yourself to blame for feeling left out. Whereas if you dive in, you'll get accepted for giving it a crack. I never understand why people join forums and avoid conversations

Thanks And water is fantastic to shoot if you can capture it right. I really love photos of water hitting water...you get the amazing droplets...but you need a really fast camera and a lot of skill to pull it off My substitute...water on plants...nothing beats it
