My first book cover - Introduction to Psychology, 12th Edition by Dennis Coon

Posting high-resolution photos on your web-site brings in the occassional request for permission to use the photos is some publication. I've had requests before from Israel Ministry of Agriculture to use camel shots from Broome in one of their publications, and Busselton Online (which doesn't seem to be online anymore :)) wanted to use one of my shots of the area on their website.

A couple of weeks ago I got a request from Cangage Learning to use of of my Antelope Canyon shots on the cover of one of their text books. The website page for the textbook is online now, and my Canyon shot made it through the review process to make the cover. While not on the same scale as a Nat Geo cover, making the front cover of a book by a reputable publisher is a nice achievement.

Hi Nick, I greatly appreciate being able to to use one of your photographs on my textbook.  The designer wanted to use a photo from red-rock county, but none of the photos he sent seemed appropriate.  I've seen a number of dramatic photos of Antelope Canyon, so I did a Google Image search and found your photo.  It was by far the best, especially because it included a face outlined by the rocks.  It's a beautiful image, and perfect for a psych book.  Nice work!  Thanks again, Dennis
