NG Stock
Saturday, July 3, 2010 | 15 Comments 
I took this photo last year when we spent the day at an animal park just outside London. I posted this, and a few other images, on the National Geographic website soon after. Earlier this week, I received an email from them asking me to add it to their stock website. It's a great feeling to get recognition from an organisation that I respect and admire - even if it's only for one image. It's like a pat-on-the-back from a close relative.
I like National Geographic. I don't tend to watch much of their channel, but I love their magazine. I even managed to subscribe electronically earlier this year - which has been fantastic. Recently I saw their advert for their back-issues from 1888 to 2008. When I mentioned it to my dear father, he kindly offered it to me as a gift. We'll be ordering it soon.
