Let me explain....Last year after winning a photo online contest (see previous posts) I was approached by a writer planning an article for a local news paper, (The Toronto Star) on container gardening and balcony gardening in paticular.
I was interviewed for the article but since my pictures were in such small format the paper wouldn't or couldn't use them....some months past...many months past. Then today I recieved an email from the writer saying the article had been published in yesterdays paper and they did use one of my pics. I was to be paid $50 for the pic and could I send her my address so she could send me the cheque :)
Colour me happy...lol I was totaly not expecting that. Here is a link to the article..now I would really like to have a hard copy of the paper...going to see if someone has yesterdays paper still.
