Last month I submitted the photos I had taken at the Severn Valley Railway steam gala to Drone User Magazine. Steve liked them so much he used them for a six page article! I couldn’t share my excitement until after 01 June when the magazine was published. Now I can, and I’m absolutely delighted - “When a Steam Buff Buys a Drone.”

A mate of mine is a marketing manager and says a 6 page article with 4 or more images is worth at least 4 figures

So £10 was not enough then?
Seriously well done.
Anyone actually read drone user magazine?

Often looked for drone mags but never seen any. Probably don’t need one with this site!
Do you have a link to the magazine?
Here is the link to the Drone User Magazine website. It is a decent read but is due to close at the end of the year due to the editor retiring - that is unless somebody would like to take it on.
Thanks for sharing but it’s a paid subscription
Errr no thanks, I love drones but I am not paying to read about them

Well done @Photobird - as a former magazine editor (aviation), I always enjoyed being able to use material from a new contributor
Hahahaha… I wish enthusiast magazines were so lucrative for photographic contributors, but the vast majority in niche spaces are not.
