Just found out today that this shot:

http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=6699

will be on the Scupltor's book (front or back cover). Don't have much more info right now, but will share when I know more.

The reason has lot to do with dgrin, smugmug. The forum has sparked my interest beyond just wanting to take shots, but wanting to take shots that cause folks to pause, maybe ponder. Smugmug allows me to show the world, and that's how the shot got seen in the 1st place.

So Thanks :thumb :clap

Oh yeah they want one in B/W, cool

    Congratulations BFJR! How did you put your picture forward? It is a wonderful shot. That man was a real find. And you handled it well, especially for a sculpture magazine cover.

    If I read your post right:
    He (need to get his name, my bad) happens to own a shop right next to mine and one day I heard him chiseling away. Took me three days to get up the nerve to ask if I could shoot, never been comfortable with that aspect of Photography. Anyway he said sure.......and the rest is .....well you know.

    Thanks again
