		Hi everyone, 
 Just wanted to give everyone an update on my new job at the local paper. Well, as I mentioned in my previous thread, I was hired as a typesetter, but they told me I'd have a chance to take some photos down the road. I have been there a little over three weeks now, I work three days a week, and I absolutely love it! Anyway, this weekend was a local small town festival and I took some pictures with the hope they would use some, and today, I found out they are going to print one in full color on the front page, two columns wide!!! I couldn't be happier! And it get's better, that one will be on the front page, to lead people to more about the festival on a different page, where they are going to print approximately four or five more of my shots, also in color! Just had to share my joy!!! Anyway, I don't get as much time to be on here as I have in the past, but I wanted to update you all on how things are going, as none of it would have happened without all that I have learned here from everyone! This is such a great community that has taught me so much, my photography has improved so much since I first came here and I have so many to thank for that! |

		Here is the picture they are using on the front...
  
 This girl had just been crowned Czech princess for 2005-06 and was playing her flute for the crowd.
 
 I would post a link, but as I mentioned this is a very small newspaper, with no website, but I will try to take a pic of the paper itself and post that. I have to wait till tonight to see it! |
