    Sold my first bird images.

    Recently I was approached by a professional birding guide to supply a number of species for an interpretive sign to be erected near the Capertee Valley, NSW - one of the premier birdwatching areas and it was (is still) on Artie's now not happening Aussie adventure itinerary. :(

    In the end they ended up buying eight images from me and that is officially the first time I sold any of my bird images (not fish or marine :D ) So needless to say, I am elated. Just thought I'd boast a little. :o

    i don't think I worry till I earn over 20k, then it will be beyond a hobby. Isn't that the ATO rule? Either way, let them come baby! My mutts are hungry! :D

    Congratulations, Akos! You work so hard to find and photograph those avian creatures. The kind of motivation, dedication and passion which you possess for the creatures of the world and for your envionment often breeds success. It couldn't happen to nicer guy! M
