I only have the Western Region, and the above photo is the only one 
of yours they've used in that edition (if photo credits are to be believed).

I notice in the photo credits you're listed under VIREO, which I am 
assuming is the stock agency you use (or used).

I've thought of offering some of my better stuff to a stock agency, 
but I do not yet have a body of work sufficient to warrant 
that.  Perhaps in another year.  With this in mind, may I be so bold 
as to ask a few questions?

[1] Are you still using VIREO?

[2] if yes, you've obviously found them satisfactory. If not, who are 
you using now?

Thanks.
