My apologies if this sounds like a boost-me thread (cos it is 
) but this is a good moment for me and one I would like to share with the good peeps here.
Background bit:
As many of you know I take photographs from the air from my paramotor and is my first love in photography. I have gained some good sales and locally a fair amount of recognition for the images that I have been lucky enough to record.
Boost-me bit:
I have been invited to be a speaker at the Scottish Nature Photography Fair to be held in September. This fair is organised by Scottish Natural Heritage, is an annual event and if I am being honest I could not lace the boots of some of the past speakers. "Honoured" does not properly describe how I feel about their choice.
As well as being paid an appearance fee my travel and accommodation costs will also be met.
Slushy bit:
To get to this point where my work is now being recognised by a wider audience has taken a fair bit of work and an awful lot of help. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the many people on these boards who have steered me through many a technical topic or two that helped me get more out of my photography and, importantly, helped me to get it right at the point of taking the image. The immediate feedback on what is popular and not has also been a lesson learned here. A point that new people to this forum should be aware off is that if you ask the question in the correct manner an answer will be found!
Thanks guys!
