Yes, that's a good sale. I'm surprised your stock house reveals the identity of the buyer. Mine doesn't. But it's still good to get the cash. I just sold a surfer pic that I shot at Venice pier a few years ago with the 6x7 and the 300/4. You never know when something might sell. Of course your work is not only very good but very special.
