The first disappointment of course was the fireworks. The local Chamber of Commerce vetoed it, even on the inside, due to a little girl losing part of her leg at the celebration.
Later they had selected the veteran's memorial for the cover in a collage with others. The collage got veteod, and the Chamber selected a picture by another photographer in town. They still wanted the Veteran's Memorial shot in there, but in the end the Chamber decided not to go with it.
In the end, I had one picture published in the Guide. This isn't a complaint, mind you, I'm thrilled to be published! So away we go...
Here's the cover of the guide, with a photo by someone else:
The byline is on the inside cover:
My photo is in the lower-right on page 7:
And finally, a closeup of my photo, which got cropped pretty arbitrarily. The original was 4x6 proportion, and they cropped to a square:
Overall, I'm real happy! I want to mount & frame it, but I'm not sure exactly the layout to use. I'll probably have it by the Christmas in November booth (fingers crossed).
