Dee, That was a great shot and loved it at the time when you first posted it, tells it's own story that pic and congrats. I have pics in the local paper here every week for sport but they too stingy to pay, but i dont mind as it is exposure and helps promote's some of the local clubs.
Well done.

If I had a pic I feltt was news worthy what is the best way to offer it to the local paper?
Do you email them a low res to bait them?

Cheers - Greg

it was just used as the feature photo of the week, and b/c its halloween, it kinda fit the theme, being a "dark" image...
