Internet for fun and profit

I posted the photographs of the Purple frog the day before

noelladsa sent the link to boingboing, which they posted yesterday.

I got the following mail last night :

Subject: Nasikabatrachus_Life in Cold Blood
From : Paul Williams

Hi Kalyan,
I understand that you have recently filmed Nasikabatrachus? This was one of the amphibians that really struck me when I started working on David Attenboroughs “Life in Cold Blood” a natural history of amphibians and reptiles. I met one of the discoverers, Franky Bossuyt, when he visited the natural history museum in London but for various logistical reasons we were not able to film it ourselves. We are currently about to edit our amphibian programme and I was wondering if we could discuss the possibility of using some of your shots in the series?

We dont have much time left to put the programme together so the sooner you can reply the better, do you have a phone number I can contact you on?

Thanks very much for your time,
Best wishes

Paul

    Hire Noel to go higher and higher in your wildlife photography journey!

    I am really thrilled with this news, Kallu (as must hundreds of others too!)…well, what I think is…one day in the future…we might have a KV series on wildlife….

    It’s not often that people pursue their dreams as you have done and realize them too. Success and happiness are, indeed, being able to do what you want to do, and being respected for it (well I am not talking about the being-paid-for-it part!)
