Hi B.D,
Who cares whether it's sponsored or not, that has no bearing on it. If the 
photography were so-so or crap they wouldn't have used your work.

After all what counts the most.... "the smashing good photography?" Or the 
fact a company had the smarts to recognize it, bought advertising space to 
show the great photographs possible with their equipment!

Hey Leica do it all the time using very stupid advertising campaigns! ;-)

At least your sponsor has the brains to show beautiful photojournalism!

Well done mon ami! Congratulations!

ted
