    Am I about to get published again?

    I just sent this off the the editor of the newspaper of the county to our north, in Oregon. I regularly submit local photos both to him and the editor here in my county. The Oregon guy does the "Guidelines" which is the weekly TV listings for both counties. The cover features a b&w local photo, which I have scored once before, if anyone recalls the pic of my brother getting tubed on a small wave earlier this year...
    He asked for this photo "ASAP" just a few minutes ago via e-mail, and of course I sent it. But he did not say what for, whether for an ad or his paper or the TV listings cover. If he wanted it fast, I can only guess as to why. The listings run every Saturday, so if he fired off the letter as he left the office (about 6 pm PST) he was probably hoping I'd get the pic sent in overnight or early tomorrow. But if he was working late and needed it today for his paper's Friday edition, I think he's still got plenty of time before the paper goes to press. Anyway, I'm happy about the prospect of getting published again, it's always fun! The populations of both counties will see the photo, which means (my estimate) about 40,000 people will look at my pic with my cutline all week long! Now to get that website fired up...
    Oh yeah, the pic: the Highway 101 bridge over the Chetco River in Brookings, Oregon. Taken from a hilltop, not the air, with a 3.2MP Olympus C-740UZ.
