For information on submitting to the 2009 Fall edition please visit Fotoblur Magazine.
It feels like just yesterday that we completed and published Issue 2 of Fotoblur Magazine and now we find ourselves at the beginning of another great issue. Issue 2 was a great success and we received amazing feedback from those that got their hands on one especially on how great it looks. For a community as small as ours you should be proud of such an accomplishment.
The goal of Fotoblur Magazine is simple. We want to promote the finest artwork created by photographers that would otherwise get unnoticed. Although the web has taken over much of media these days such as tv, video, and news you might wonder why we would go to such great lengths to take web content and generate a printed publication. For one, we believe the printed form is not dead and that both the web and printed form can coexist, one enhancing the other. Also, as an online community, we do get the rare opportunity of generating a magazine together and this is what makes it such a special process.
We currently are evaluating options of distributing Fotoblur Magazine to newsstands in the near future. There is a lot of planning and working with vendors to make this a reality. We are in talks with a few distributors and are determining whether Fotoblur Magazine could find a niche in today's market. If anyone has experience in this type business endeavor please contact us at contact[at]fotoblur.com.
Good luck on your submissions for issue 3 and looking forward to another great issue!
