Congrats Jon! Just to let you know, as soon as I start getting steady income again I want to buy one of your shots. The one with the monument in your hand... I totally love that one.

Sorry this is so off topic, but Becky, I'm listening to Love Hater by OutKast, and your little guy is dancing to it! Get down, little buddy!

I'm not sure who is more excited. JonMikal for selling his first image or me at the idea of actually getting my hands on some of his stuff to deck the walls in the Photogoddess/Malachite household. If you keep taking and posting such awesome stuff, my entire house is going to be decorated with nothing but Terri and JM prints.

That's awesome news! It's so much fun to see your photo on paper, framed and matted! May this be the first of many sales to come

Seriously! We have more of Terri's prints framed than we do of our own stuff at this point. You guys earned the sales cause you both rock!!! I finally had to quit looking at Terri's stuff. Nearly verything she posted I wanted to buy.

Jon.. Man.. way to go dude.. Your stuff is just killer. Every one of your photos should be framed on a wall somewhere.
