In a magazine or newspaper for example, not including email news letters or on websites.

I have my first in a small specialist magazine's december edition. Quite looking forward to seeing the result!

I had quite a few published over a few months for a magazine of a previous hobby, the magazine was not exactly a high profit organisation, i didnt get paid - seeing my name and pictures in print was enough for me.

at the time i enjoyed it very much, it was good practice, a reason to take the pictures in the first place and as i've already put, it was great opening the mag and seeing my pictures smile

Many dozens, although I keep saying never again unless the payment's right. I've just forwarded some copy and a couple of pics at the request of an editor and what do I get? A wad of cash? Nope. A free copy of the mag? Er, no. An idea which edition it's going to be in? Let me see... no. Surely an email saying thanks? No. Always the same. And the times I get decent payment I could count on a leper's hand. fking freeloaders, all of em.

...

Sorry about that. You caught me on a bad day and this week the subject of freeloaders is getting me red around the gills. As you were... smile

Oh, and well done

What class?

Well I've sold a couple privately, ones of me appeared occaisionaly for sport. Alas not my sailing, of all my attempts I only ever got across the line first once (That's the starting line,that'll only make sense to mariners)

The magazine is Blood and Bab parties monthly I mean, SideStripe, which claims to be a publication for enthusiasts of police vehicles. Due to me only doing photography as a hobby, and the magazine been small and specialist i 'donated' the picture in exchange for a small mention and a free copy, The editor discovered it on a forum i used to use, so it was nice of him to email and ask for permission.

Here is the picture in question:
