My new book is hot off the presses! I'm so excited, it's the first published book of my photography! Many of you have been asking when I was going to publish some of my photos. 40 of my favorite photographs are included, many of them published here at Gather. The name of my book is FLOWERS AND OTHER BEAUTIFUL THINGS

Here is the link.

Thank you,
Trudy :-)

Congratulations Trudy! It looks wonderful.
Isn't that a self-publishing site?
Member Photog Jul 11, 2007, 11:05pm EDT
blurb is a good one and charge lower prices than most....did you go with hardcover or soft,portrait or landscape format?....are you sending yours out as gifts,or selling to your freinds/family?......i am preparing to get some ordered for holiday gifts this time around....fun to have,eh?!
cheers,gayle
But $33.95 for 40 pages soft cover? That's crazy. Those guys are making a killing. I'm in the wrong business.

Congrats. I checked out the site. My husband is a photographer who's only made books for us so far. It's nice to see there's a place for him to publish for a larger audience. A little pricey for some of these, but I'm sure well worth it.
Barbara F. Jul 15, 2007, 12:07pm EDT
that's awesome..I'm going to look now..:)
