    Talking I sold my first picture today!

    I put a picture I took in a cheap frame and sold it in a yard sale today I can't believe someone actually paid money for one of my pictures! I made about a 40% profit... but it isn't about any money... I still can't believe someone paid money for one of my pictures Oh, and... the person asked me if I would take some pictures of their flowers for them

    I'm just a lil jazzed right now

    LOL, I know I still have a long way to go, but thank you. I'm very critical of my own pictures so it was pretty cool that someone actually wanted to buy one.

    Thanks Manacsa and Greg McCary, sure Greg you can see it... I've posted it here before.

    Beautiful picture, and congratulations for selling your first print! I can see why they wanted to buy it.
