    Got a nice check today from an English photo agency. I had given up on them. Must be ten years since I sent the last set of images as I only sent out slides. Haven't done much with agencies since I got the digital cameras. Anyway, the images sold went from Canada to the UK, they sold them to Russia and some to the USA. The English Pounds are quite acceptable though.

    Well it certainly took them long enough didn't it? I'm so pleased that you got the cheque eventually though. I wish I knew where they were selling them here in the UK as I would have bought some.

    Eileen, They have had the images for years but they were sold in the last three months as they pay out quarterly. Two of the images were weeds and the other was this Chia, taken in the States.

    Waretrop, you're very kind, I might be a little big headed but it is so long since I sent them images. Had to tell someone.

    Thanks cherylad, you are too kind. I do get a lot of pleasure just showing the pics here. I had given up on agencies as I stopped sending stuff to them when I went digital. I did get a check from Visuals Unlimited in Jan. which was also a surprise.
