Oops, and a full month has passed since I last blogged. I've had a lot to do lately and not really anything to blog about. I received some very exciting news the other day however: a new photo sale through the photo bureau - but this time to a Finnish monthly magazine with over 700 000 readers and over 230 000 subscribers. Good as that sounded, I thought it would probably be a small picture not very prominently displayed. Of course I made my way to the closest news stand and had quite a surprise: page 7, FULL page, AND my name clearly displayed! Here is a scan of the page:
The title is 'dizzying sun!' and it's all about the spring sun and light, so I very much like the context where my picture appears. You might even say that the picture is the main thing in the piece, because there's only one other page with comments by four people about the spring.
This is really good news, not only because it's a big magazine but also because it's only one of many in the roster of a big publishing house. Since my name and the photo bureau address are printed in the picture, I'm hoping it will be effective as an advertisment for my work.

Thank you Gina and Anne-Marie both! x
It would be fantastic if I could begin to earn some living from freelance photography and writing. So I really hope this will lead to more things.
Congratulations Maria!!! Very well deserved if I might say so. I am hoping to resurrect my blog again soon, so hopefully I'll be back more frequently, then.
Thank you Val! Hope you've been fine. x
Congratulations to you!
Thank you Hans!
Excellent :)
