The Golden State Photos Magazine

I just got the proof back from my first magazine and I am impressed with how well the photos were reproduced on the pages. I've heard a lot of horror stories about other photographers not being happy with the print quality of their images from various book publishers and magazines so I'm happy the report that there are no such issues with the MagCloud publisher.

The Golden State Photos Magazine is now available for purchase for $5.50 and features several full and double-page spreads worth of photography. While they aren't quite as large as my 12 x 18 and larger sized archival fine art prints, the magazine provides a much better viewing experience than seeing the photos on the web in my opinion.

That's pretty cool Richard! I was unaware of this new concept in publishing until now.

Richard, you never fail to amaze me. Not only is your work awesome, but you never get tired of looking for new ways of monetization (something I still have to catch up with).

The MagCloud concept is pretty cool, and I looked at the preview of your magazine on their site. Good stuff, really.

And now I am off to think of a number of magazines to monetize my back catalog. :-)

Thanks Mark, your commments mean a lot. In life in general, I've always been interested in trying new things. In the case of the magazine, I think it's more of a nice promo tool than something to make a lot of money off. I'd like to lower the price even further but then there would be no profit margin.
