it's more complicated than that. i have been developing a relationship with the magazine and just submitted my third article with photos to them for publication. the three articles were prearranged and written to a topic we agreed on and a photo count. i also entered their photo contest and this image was one of the ten images i submitted. another image i sent in won a prize in the Landscape and Nature category, but i don't know which prize it won yet, 1st, 2nd, or 3rd. i am visiting the office on Friday and am brainstorming a 4th article to write. i have to look through my photos and see what theme i can use without running out and taking a lot more.
