    BURNETT v. COLEMAN.
    Decided February 28, 1984 —
    Rehearing denied March 20, 1984 —
    
      Bruce M. Hofstadter, for appellant.
    
      James E. Turk, David E. Morgan III, for appellee.
   Carley, Judge.

Appellant brings a direct appeal from a judgment holding her in contempt of an order which granted appellee visitation rights to the parties’ child. “Visitation privileges are, of course, part of custody. [Cits.]” Ledford v. Bowers, 248 Ga. 804, 805 (286 SE2d 293) (1982). Accordingly, it is clear that the instant case is subject to the provisions of OCGA § 5-6-35, because it is an appeal from a judgment holding appellant in contempt of a child custody order. OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (2). As such, the instant case is not directly appealable and must be dismissed because of appellant’s failure to follow the procedure necessary to secure a discretionary appeal. Godbold v. Godbold, 245 Ga. 121 (263 SE2d 440) (1980); Courson v. Ridley, 247 Ga. 171 (276 SE2d 45) (1981).

Appeal dismissed.
