Would it be possible to use your photos in a S.V. post that I'm working on for my blog, <a rel="nofollow">"Meet The World"</a>? I would give you full credit for your photos as well as provide a link to your original post.<br /><br />I guess I will just check back to the comment section here on this post for your answer.
