This catalogue has just been released by the marketing department. I couldn't tell you when it'll appear around the traps. I'm sure it won't be long.

Jean Poitiers · 11-28-2012, 02:13 PM

Congrats and well deserved ... J

**Ash** · 11-28-2012, 04:56 PM

Much appreciated Jean.

Congratulations Ash!

That's a very nice image and a great reward for you.

Did they find the image in the Pentax Gallery or how did they learn about it?

**Ash** · 11-28-2012, 08:33 PM

Yes, the marketing rep said that she saw it on PPG and asked for a full-size image for printing on their upcoming catalogue.

Note to self.... Upload more shots to PPG!

Congrats on getting in the catalog, It is just an incredible image!

I hope I can come back from there in feb with something like that!

Well done my man, whilst no cash, I hope you at least got a credit printed on there somewhere, your work deserves that.

**Ash** · 11-29-2012, 04:30 AM

Thanks guys. And Chaos, there are plenty of unique photo opportunities all over the world, I'm sure you'll come back with plenty of great photos.

Awesome dude! It's a great shot! Any news on the best way to get our hands on this catalog? Would love to have a physical copy to show friends and family when they inevitably ask "What the heck is a Pentax?"

photoman1 · 11-29-2012, 01:03 PM

Yes, this is the catalog that was at PhotoPlus NYC 2012

**Ash** · 11-29-2012, 01:31 PM

Great stuff photo man. Would be good to see the catalogue go around beyond just the Pentaxians circles.

Very cool.

It's a great photograph and perfect for the catalog, but they should have paid you for use of the image. Pentax, after all, will be making money from the catalog.

Yes, true. I do gather that Pentax doesn't have a massive marketing budget and as such I couldn't have expected any remuneration for the image. I think the recognition was good enough for me.
