Here goes my first publishing of a photobook.
As I write to you, my final version is going to be printed with BLURB (I made 3 revisions). It is about all the action I have seen along the river for the last 6 years. It's 116 pages with 303 photos. In gross total, there are approx. 6000 photos that I chose from.
The Hudson River was the main highway into America 400 years ago, and it still is a main highway.
My photos were taken from a 10th floor window on Riverside Drive in Manhattan at 109St. It's a 'from my window' type photobook.
Here are a few two page spreads to see what the book will look like.
I hope this works, its my first, and I have so many more books to create, I have a list 10 subjects to work on.

That picture of the clipper ship and the Lady is exceptional. Lots of luck with the book.

Looks like a real labor of love. The pictures of the Tall Ships are awesome! How and when will you publish the book?

I have spent 45 years in the maritime industry over my lifetime. This time was spent along the Mississippi River around the New Orleans area. I find this type of book to be very interesting. Good Luck with it!

any day now, going to print 2 copies of latest revision and request an ebook version, then figure out a selling price, which depends on printing quanty, then how to promote...It's a full time job !

Wow! Having grown up in a town on the Hudson River (Poughkeepsie), the topic really piqued interest. Your photos are gorgeous! Hope you sell many books!
