As many of you know, I've been toting my camera(s) to gigs for a long time. Recently, at RoSfest, I showed my pix of Cryptic Vision to the band minutes after their performance and the bought them -- the whole lot -- on the spot. My pix of Kino and Magenta have also been requested of these bands.

In March I attended the third Marillion Weekend and took close to 800 shots of the band throughout the three day weekend. The Web | UK (Marillion's fan club) saw the pix that I posted and asked for them. They used them for the latest "Fan-zine". In fact, *my* pix adorn the front and back covers of the latest issue as well as 15 pages of the 64 total in this edition.

Anyway, I just wanted to share my elation with all my good frirends here on the moon. I used to write for a technical journal, so I've been published before but, save for web sites, this is the first time I've had any pictures published in a magazine. Last time I heard, the circulation was about 30K.

Excellent, vax.

I know a lifetime attorney who gave it all up to do the camera thing at gigs. Then again, perhaps he wasn't giving much up :D

Thanks to you, and to Mrs. vax for sharing your lens view.

For my next photo project, Mossy on a bear skin rug... just Mossy! :D

Thank you! If I could figure out a way to make the money I do in software with the camera, I'd give up the saftware biz in a flash like your attorney (but I don't see how he can take pix slithering on his belly?).

Seeing as how they're your moniker here, do you subscribe to the Fanzine?
