I, or at least one of my photographs, have received international recognition of sorts. A reporter with the Daily Trust in Nigeria contacted me today via e-mail to inquire if I knew that one of my photos was being used in a presidential campaign there. It’s on the home page for Umaru Yar’Adua, the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, and can be seen at www.yaraduagoodluck.com. It’s the photo in the bottom left corner. The PDP is the largest of about a half dozen political parties in the country. Because it occupies about 26 of the 36 governorships, the PDP candidate will probably win the April election. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, and you’ll see the liink to my Flickr site where the photo was found (click on i_level_news).How should I celebrate this momentous event?

Pretty cool Buddy. I hope the question from the reporter was not intending to make the picture use a scandal if your permission wasn’t asked first. I wonder how the reporter traced it back to you. I didn’t see the link he was referring to.
