    Confirms my suspicions. I thought you may have bought a minimum of 60 copies (per day).
    Cheers

    That's a gross exaggeration; we only bought 50 copies per day.

    Sorry to bring a thread up from last month but I was browsing through old threads in this section and realised this was the first photography mag I bought and it was because I liked the photo

    During discussions with Robert Keeley re my cover image, he told me that the cover image is intended to entice people to buy the magazine.

    I'm glad to see I've been able to prove him right. ;-)

    A while ago I replied to a post that you had posted with a lot of self doubt,

    Well, I'm glad to see fortunes have changed, and well earned indeed...

    Hard bloody work counts for something after all, does it not?

    This is a just reward for tireless work and self belief in yourself, all be it, some times bashed by self doubt.

    What a great set of shots, something to be proud of,

    Something to be shared and admired by all that appreciate our art form.

    This for all of us is what it's all about, knowing you have it, finding as I think Dylan had said,

    A partial view and a critic not looking for just a field that they believe to be a gold stamp.

    You have pushed your skills and posted in, what I believe to be some of the best "Landscape" shots on this site, some that don't portray the effects of over PSing images to death. Bring the RAW to life is fine, but when you can't expose an image like some wan't, we seem to rely on the old PS to bring it out.

    Well done, accept what your fellow TOGS have be-stowed on you and your wonderful images Xenedis.

    Shit mate, you deserve it.

    Love your work mate, stand proud.


    BUT>>>>>>

    Don't just leave it on the bloody coffee table,

    Put the bastards on the wall where they belong.

    Skill is something, like respect, it's earn't, you deserve it.. Well Done.

    Congratulations mate. If I recall correctly I contributed to that image - standing next to you making fun of Canon users. Must have spurred you on

    I've found that photography competitions are a bit like IQ tests.

    Much as a low or average IQ score doesn't mean one is unintelligent, failing to do well in competitions doesn't mean one is a bad photographer.

    IQ tests measure people's ability to do IQ tests, and photography competitions measure people's ability to do well in photography competitions.

    As a matter of interest, I [i]still[i/] cannot do well in photography competitions.

    We have one framed copy here, and we've sent issues of the magazine to family members too.
    also have copies.

    I'll let you in on a secret.

    I told Robert Keeley that I was surrounded by Nikon zealots on the morning I shot the image.

    He felt very sorry for me and told me that to ease my hardship, he'd publish my image on the cover of his magazine. It was the least he could do.

    He was surprised, though, to hear that a photographer would keep company with a bunch of rabid Nikon zealots.

    :-P
