Thank you and thank you. I appreciate your viewership.
By and large, the fighters I shoot have been by biggest fans, and I figure I've got something special when I got a guy who happened to lose his fight as a customer.

Those are realy good pictures.
Though the picture of Sherk looks like he's from a bad magic show with the purple lighting and that big Owl on his shirt.

Thanks. Yeah, I've been published a few times, though the novelty has worn off for me. For me, getting published was a goal at one time, but unless I'm getting paid, or better yet hired, it's kind of a dead end. Magazines will take free pics from photographers all day long; if fact, they prefer it. I was paid for the Imes/gogo pic, as they came to me asking for it, but it took some negotiating. That said, I get myself far more publicity through the internet with things like Myspace and forums such as this than being published in a non-interactive stack of shiny papers.
