boinky 0 #1 March 6, 2007 Okay,.....well..... "famous" might not be the whole truth. But it IS a picture that I took that was published on page 23 of the February Parachutist! I have to say that there are few things more exciting than getting that white envelope from Parachutist with a copy of that issue, a congratulatory letter and a check. I have to give a special thanks to my honey for submitting the picture for me. And for all of you "doubting Thomases"...no, he didn't take the picture. He's actually IN the plane, as it's a picture from a series I took of his SCR at Skyfest here in Texas last year. Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?

pfloyd 0 #3 March 6, 2007 Good for you, as its your first published photo your home DZ should be getting a new case of beer in the fridge And please attach the photo, since I am at work I don't have my copy of Parachutist with me; I want to see the picture. Keep up the good work! My drinking team has a skydiving problem Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boinky 0 #4 March 6, 2007 I had to take a picture of the picture in the magazine, as the laptop is having "issues." The original had a lot more color and "ahhhh" value to it. But who am I to complain? Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?

IanHarrop 37 #5 March 6, 2007 An upload of the picture is required for us non-USPA jumpers in countries other than the USA.

boinky 0 #6 March 6, 2007 I posted a copy of the one in the magazine. Can't get the one off the laptop right now. Besides, I'm not sure if Parachutist would allow me to post the original anyway.

livendive 8 #8 March 6, 2007 There is another dz.commer (videointhesky) who owes beer for the March centerfold. At least 3 of the subjects also owe (The pink jumpsuit is an indication of previously published jumps, but is being pictured in the centerfold a beerable offense every time or just the first time?) Clearly the daughter, Kara, is the best skydiver in the bunch by virtue of having had an unbelievably good AFF instructor. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

boinky 0 #9 March 6, 2007 I would think that only the first time being published would be a beer offense. Of course, that's once being published in writing (which I was in Sept. '04) and once in picture. But since I'm tickled pink by the whole concept, I'll personally pay beer every time it happens for me!
