Email from the first reader who bought a photo:

The print is amazing! The framing was really well done. I still can’t get over the composition of the photograph. Really beautiful.

I am glad you are willing to sell your photos. You have a wonderful eye.

He bought this one.

As for the framing, since the photo was irregularly sized, I had to have it done professionally. And since I regularly slam companies who provide bad service on this site, let me take this opportunity to praise Ah Art & Framing in Arlington, Virginia. The guy is about 50% less expensive than most other framers in the D.C. area, does a terrific job, and is generally a really nice guy. He even took the print apart so I could sign it, then reapplied the backing at no extra charge. He’s also really enthusiastic about what he does, and has a great eye for finding the appropriate matting and frame. I’ve used him several times. Can’t recommend him enough.
