Two Year Retrospective (continued)

To continue with my look back on my first two years, below are some of my favorite photos from the first six months of last year (2009).

For the first time, during this period I received requests from people wanting to use my photos. The photo below left was used in a Mexican elementary school arithmetic textbook. The Chinese Public School photo in the center was used in a brochure advertising the 150th Anniversary of Victoria's Chinatown. The photo of Halkett Island on the right was the first photo for which I received some income ($50) since it was used for an article in United Airlines' in-flight magazine.

Well, I was going to write a little about lenses and software today but this post is already too long so I will leave it for tomorrow.

Good Morning - I want to thank you for all your wonderful photography. I live north of Edmonton on a farm but grew up in Victoria so seeing your photos each morning take me home. Memories of so many places are closer thanks to you. Just a suggestion from one photographer to another ... Finnerty Gardens at UVIC is especially beautiful at this time of year. Congratulations on your second anniversary!
