As Seen in National Geographic

Be sure and pick up a copy of the November/December 2009 issue of National Geographic Traveler Magazine.

Turn to page 104 and you'll find a photo taken by me!

The picture is one I took during an air boat tour of the Atchafalaya Swamp in Louisiana last summer. It is in the magazine in support of an article about the town of Breaux Bridge.

The publication of this picture was a total surprise. I hadn't submitted it to the magazine or anything. A few months back I got an email from a photo intern at the magazine. She'd seen the picture on my blog and wanted to know if National Geographic could purchase it. Of course!

Here's the blog post she saw.

That's wild, I was on that trip. I think I was on the testosterone boat though. Congrats.

Well, I might have to argue with you on the testosterone boat. We were in the one with the "Coon Ass" who was peeing off the side. I'd say that was quite a show of testosterone. He also showed us his knife.
