4,000 posts

I just realised I broke the 4,000 post barrier, phw0ar!

In celebration, I might just post another terrestrial image!

Apologies for all the SPAM.

Haha, Justin. I have plenty of images in the pipeline. It's just a matter of getting around to processing them.

I've been doing some 30x20 and 36x24 prints of late and I'm blown away by the amount of detail that's showing up.

I think I'm finally getting somewhere. I'm starting to get enquiries from other photography forums with people wanting to purchase max resolution TIFFs so they can print themselves. I'm trying to work out a pricing structure that's fair, represents the quality of image, as well as being profitable.

Geoff, you're too right. I've been having far too many late nights in recent times. Especially since I got sick -- stuck in bed all day, nothing else to do at night!

Cheers!

H

Awesome, but, are these people buying outright or do you wish to retain ownership of the images?

Congrats H

That must work out to be around 3000 of your wonderful images, and I remember reading a post that you were wondering if you would ever get past 1000.

Cheers

Well done H what a legend you have been, such incredible images you have posted that demonstrate such great depths of creativity and understanding of your subject and equipment.

Look forward to seeing where this will ultimately take you.

That is excellent news H, glad to hear it's coming together.
When I get some spare cash you can expect an order of a couple prints from me.

Reckon of that 4000-odd posts, you've had a couple that were worth reading? The other 3998 weren't.



Hahahahahahh. Sorry.

Well done, H.
Wouldn't it be great if we could all turn a profit from what we love doing?
Congratulations!
