I am so proud of him and he wasn't even looking for this.... Someone viewed it on Flikr and E-Mailed him to ask for permission to use it! My Husband is wanting to become a professional photographer and is taking some courses on line. He is hoping that he will have his business off the ground within a year or two! Here's the link to the article that requested his photo: http://www.nowpublic.com/environment/grasshoppers-are-recruited-climate-change-scouts Have you ever had a photo or anything else published? Were you trying to get it published or did it just come? Here's My Husband's photo as well! Hope you enjoy it! ~Heavens~

Oh that would be wonderful, I am just really getting into photography and to think someone thinks so much of one of your photos would be very encouraging, it would be a real inspiration to take more...

Thanks weemam it is great to see you here! I appreciate your support in this but this is not a paid publishing.... It is more exposure for him that we hope will lead to paid projects! ~Heavens~

This is very exciting heavens. I'm sure it'll be a great source of encouragement for your husband. You 'know' that I wish him all of the success in the world, with this. I'm hoping he's finally found his 'niche,' career wise. With a lot of hard work, and determination, I truly believe that he can accomplish this. By the way, what page of the article is his photo on? I've viewed it in your other discussion, and have placed a comment with the photo. The only thing I've 'really' had published, is a limerick I wrote back when I was a teen. It received honourable mention in a nationwide (Canadian) publication. It's always been my dream to become a published writer, and I 'know' that it's not too late to pursue this. I just need the self confidence, and discipline to go after this. I was taking a professional writing course, a number of years back, and dropped out because of all of the stress in my life. I've actually found their website, and have wondered if I could pick it up again, but the timing will have to be right.

I appreciate your kind words. I 'may' just do what you've mentioned (if possible). I just have to make sure I'm on the right path, before I jump into anything. I trust 'our light' is getting brighter (finally).

Hi Mom! I posted the photo above for lilaclady...It's annoying when things out on here properly...As I was sure it was attached and then did not show Anyhow, I had to search for it myself! LOL You will find it on page thirteen right at the top of the page under SeRVe61 Thanks for entering the other discussion also... I couldn't believe it when the photo did not show with this one and had to try and do something! It would be great if you took up the on line writing course again and I 'know' you are a talented writer especially of poetry etc. I have confidence in you and my husband... I just know there has to be a light at the end of the tunnel and I think I am beginning to see it here! Love and Hugs ~Heavens~
