I’d like to see it, but I probably couldn’t afford to buy one (I’m considering getting a Wii when my student loans come in >.<).
Hey Nathy, have you ever thought of submitting your photography to publishers of childrens books? They are always looking for good illustrators/photographers for all sorts of books; from picture books to non-fiction and science books. I’ve a book that lists contact names and addressess for all the publishing houses in North America that are looking for the sort of work you do. Would you be interested in selling your work in that market? Let me know and I’ll dig out the name of the book (I think it’s The Writers/Illustrators Guide to Childrens’ Books, but I’ll make sure.) Just a thought….

OK let me know. 🙂mmloda wrote:That last pic is cool…what is that of? and that tree pic BDW that you darkened the background on looks amaizing, it really does make the tree stand out, I wish I kenw how to do that kind of stuff… 🙂
It’s taken from the end of that big icicle you see in this picture hanging from my house.
And darkening the background to make that tree stand out took forever, not something I want to do again. 🙄

Absolutely! I love coffee table books anyway, and one filled with the photography of a friend would be extra special.

Awwww GB you are going to make me cry! 😥 🙂
You are very special too and I value your opinion. 😉Blackdesertwind wrote:twindragonsmum wrote:Hey Nathy, have you ever thought of submitting your photography to publishers of childrens books?

OK let me know. 🙂All righty… The book is “Children’s Writers & Illustrator’s Market”. It is updated every year and has contact names, addresses and phone numbers and what each publisher is looking for. You can also find publishers on the internet. Start looking at childrens books at the library or book stores to see what is being published. You can better judge which publishers would like to see your work and not waste your time or theirs by submitting work that doesn’t fit their list. Do be ready for rejection letters but don’t give up! It rarely happens that your work is accepted by the first publisher you send it too…

Amen to that! Do check out Canadian publishers, especially since you photograph a lot of Canadian scenery. There’s a lot on info here: http://www.publishers.ca/about-intro.htm

More pics. I was trying to take a picture of this downy woodpecker but he took off. I still thought it was a good picture.
