From: Luke Ritchie, Managing Editor, Schmap Guides
Hi Vincent,
I am writing to let you know that one of your photos has been short-listed for inclusion in the third edition of our Schmap Philadelphia Guide, to be published early in August.
While we offer no payment for publication, many photographers are pleased to submit their photos, as Schmap Guides give their work recognition and wide exposure, and are free of charge to readers. Photos are published at a maximum width of 150 pixels, are clearly attributed, and link to high-resolution originals at Flickr.
Wow! So once again, FLICKR – the photo sharing website that hosts my photography has once again given me exposure to a wider audience. I’m always amazed when I get a notice like the one above, from an editor or publisher who’s stumbled upon an image of mine and has decided to use it in their project.
Once before, I had an image plucked from my photostream on Flickr used on the community driven, social-news website NowPublic. And here is my contribution as part of a news story on the immigration rally in Philadelphia, PA.
