Several on line newspapers in Oz and weirdly the Uk have posted it too. an english mag has asked for a full res photo to publish and the guy who runs the hang gliding is asking for a fee . :2biggn: not holding my breath for a fee though.
thought I would share although I am still not that happy with the photo wish i had done better.

Does that mean you are famous now Vera.. Can the person who runs the hand gliding do that ?

Jeez, they could have interviewed and quoted the photographer. :2smile: No photo, no story.

I'm glad you are getting some recognition for a great capture Vera.

As far as a fee for the opportunistic hang-glider pilot goes, well I'd be telling him "In your dreams". He's already got a million bucks worth of free publicity.
