Hi all! Well, it's been quite some time since I've posted any images. Guess I've just been busy with life and other projects. I hope to get out shooting again soon with ya'll, I miss it.
Anyway, I just wanted to post a "woohoo" for myself. I was contacted by a greeting card company about purchasing 2 of my images. My first ever commercial sale and I'm excited!
This is one of the images they will be using for an Anniversary card. I shot this years ago at Ecola State Park. The fence no longer exists in this form.
Hope to get out shooting soon and Happy Thanksgiving!

Congratulations. That is a beautiful shot. The tones and colors are amazing behind that silhouetted fence. The delicate grasses add a really nice element.

Thanks all! Yeah Kev, we need to hike back up to Lookout Mtn again. I bet it was beautiful up there this morning.

I remember this phot too! Truly beautiful, and totally understandable this would sell. I'm in for that Lookout Mountain morning hike. How about tomorrow? Call me if you are interested.
Hi, Eric! Nice to hear from you and to see this marvelous shot. Congratulations, that is exciting.

Hey guys, darn, I didn't check the forum for a couple days. Had we actually been on top of Lookout Mtn this morning it would have been breath taking. The sunrise was phenomenal...too bad I was driving to work instead.

Congratulations, Eric! I'll look or your image in the Hallmark rack next time I'm at Freddies..!
