One of my shots was used in the Bangor Daily Press (online edition). Print goes out tomorrow, I'll update if they indeed do print.

Fire shuts down portion of Main Street in Old Town, damages business — Bangor — Bangor Daily News — BDN Maine


This is the image they chose to use. I personally felt 1 or 2 would have been better, but I guess they were going for "action".

Congrats!!! Exciting!! All the shots were great from yesterday

Thanks lady. Sucks about the circumstance, but it was really fun and exciting bouncing around trying to capture the moment, and remember everything (all that I've learned) in the heat of the moment.

Nice,Congrats. Hope they paid you fairly.

I am paid in happiness that a photo of mine was chosen.

The local paper typically doesn't pay well, as they get tons of amateur and fauxtographers pouring in daily. They wrote me a nice blurb about my captures and used a photo of mine, good enough for me. If I'm being honest, some of my shots I am proud of and I think were well taken...but they aren't that good, to me anyway.

Excellent, congratulations. I remember the first photos I had published, back in 1969, it's pretty exciting seeing your name in print. I'm still trying to track down a copy of the magazine.

The photos were published in a Canadian Football League game day programme, it's just a matter of tracking one of them down, problem is that I don't remember which programme it was, I saw one about 15 years ago, I could track one down on ebay.
