Recently MPIX had a 25% off canvas gallery wraps and I had a couple 16 X 24 printed up. I was planning to donate one for a silent acution this fall locally and wanted to see what the other image looked like bigger and on canvas. One was of the Twin(Triple) Falls at Camp Orr and the other was an intimate from Smith Creek. I took them to work today to show some people and ca,e home with some money in my pocket and one less gallery wrap.

I SOLD ONE!! Was not expecting it. The girl who bought it was having a hard time deciding and almost bought both. She choose the Twin Falls image BTW. Never in a million years did I dream that I would sell any landscape images. I love it but there are so many so much better. So far all you folks out ther wondering...I say KEEP SHOOTING and trying and just when you least expect it. I took my bride out for a sushi late luch to celebrate. :jump:

Congratz!!! That is awesome, espcecially since it was unexpected.

Getting that first sale is always a big rush. Who am I kidding, they are all pretty fantastic.

Hope the next one follows close behind.
