17 January 2011

Once in a while, I get requests to publish or exhibit my photos in various media – most for a fee and some for free, depending on the purpose and cause. This page consolidates some of the ones available to the public. Several others have also requested for the use of the images for educational material, but were not listed here. Will update this page from time to time.

Just a simple log of some of the published material, each representing a step toward bringing my photos to a larger audience.
