   That must be so wonderful to have a job that allows you to travel all over the world and capture the breath-taking sites. You and Vienna Teng have jobs I would absolutely love.

   Congrats! That rocks.
   
   How does it work? Are you surprised when you get a cover? Or do you know it’s coming?

   Thanks, guys. :) the first time, I was surprised. I knew about this one. But sometimes, you give an editor a photo with the understanding that it may appear in the magazine. money usually comes much later. I’m not sure why money doesn’t follow immediately, but it’s probably just because magazines in the dive industry can get away with not paying immediately.

   So the decision to pursue photography was the right one after all, eh? Sure beats the hell out of sitting in a cubicle writing code, doesn’t it.
   
   There are people who stand out from the crowd and often turn passion into excellence. You’re one of those people. That was clear to me when we met six years ago, and it’s still true today.
   
   Nice work, Eric. It’s an honor and a pleasure to know you.

   I would just hate to be the photo editor on that one. There was so much amazing stuff in there to choose from.
   
   Er, wait. Galapagos. I was thinking of the Bali trip. Anyway… congratulations! I hope you’re framing your covers.

    has anyone out there actually seen this issue? I hear there were some printing issues, and that the photos don’t look very good. :(
