Just got this email from the National Arboretum of Australia

"Hi ,
FYI, your gorgeous photo of the Cork oak forest is being used a lot here atm. It’s on the verso of a business card and DL flier I’m using it to encourage visitors to participate in our survey. It’s on the front of the A4 flier. Hope you like them. See attached - some are low res versions and your image looks even better on the high res print versions. I’ll also put the image on the large grove screen in the Village Centre. Your image is also being used online to promote Ginger Catering’s Hansel and Gretel dinner on 24 August, see GC site at: http://www.gingercatering.com.au/kitchen-cabinet-hansel-gr…/ It will also be on our website but isn’t live yet."
It’s one of the best Cork oak images I have and thank you again for letting us use it!"

Cheers Mick and James, I'm humbled.

I'm popping down there tomorrow to see how it looks on the "big screen" they have. Also to pick up some of the brochures and cards with it on to send to me mam, she likes seeing stuff i do.

Unfortunately we had to cry off, as there is a set menu and both the starter and main are both meat dishes. Still, it's lovely to have my images appreciated.
