Congrats, Marnie. Many happy returns ! I sell photographs from time to time too. I don't make a lot of money, but it helps financing an expensive hobby :-)
Keep up the good work! And do remember to restict the buyers use of the photograph, so you can sell it again, and again, and again, and again ....
