G’day Everyone,

For those of us sufficiently aged to remember the music of the seventies, you might recall the tongue-in-cheek song by Dr. Hook, “The Cover Of The Rolling Stone”.  Whether you’re a “big rock singer with golden fingers” or a nature photographer with a keen eye, a cover shot, in particular, on a national publication, is about as good as it gets.  You’d think, being a professional and all, getting one’s images published loses its allure after a while.  Not for this pro.  What with the competition these days, it’s more important than ever to stand out and there’s not much that spotlights one’s work better than a national cover.  Well, ok, there’s winning the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award and the Pulitzer Prize, but let’s keep it real.
