Karen:
The editor of the National Club, The Bernese Mountain Dog Club of America’s Bernese Mountain Dog Handbook, Debbie Godfrey, (godfreyd@mac.com) has asked me if she could use one of the photos that you took of my Bernese Mountain Dog at the 2008 BMDCA National Specialty (Herding Trials) in the new edition of the printed publication. The photograph is Proof # hd-0421083-498 (it was unidentified because we were walk-ons). The editor would like to crop the sheep and handler out of the picture so that only the dog is featured (illustrating power and agility). She would of course acknowledge you in the photo credits (and with your bug on the photo). Is this possible?
I will also be ordering 8×10s of 3 of the photos.
Sincerely, Nancy Melone
