Wentworth Photo Meet 8th March

[Septemberleg]

Fotolibra is a Rights Managed library. The book was published in September and I've only just now got the payment for the photos.

 

Most of my photos are on istockphoto on Royalty Free basis (at the higher end of being "microstock") - follow the link in my signature - hoping one day to reach the magical 10,000 sales and then be able to submit images to Getty (who own istock)

 

I send images to Alamy and find a RM sale always takes far longer for payment to come through. Is Fotolibra exclusive?

 

I have some images on istock also - microstock is something i started to experiment with about six months back, sending images also to bigstock and shutterstock. You don't have to wait till you've had 10,000 sales till trying Getty - I tried last year and they accepted my first submission, so I have about 20 images with them now. Sadly, they charge 50 dollars per image you send up (first 10 1/2 price), and so far I haven't had any sales

They have just sold themselves in the last few weeks I think, so I am waiting to see what happens to them and concentrating on 4corners for exclusive images and alamy and photoshelter for non-exclusives.

 

With all of the above you can search me as septemberlegs, except 4corners who insist on no pseudonyms and so it has to be deborah waters!

 

And now, i have just moved to Sheffield and am about to have a baby so I face the challenge of learning how to keep it up with a newborn in tow, help!

Don't think FL is exclusive, but havent had a paid account with them in ages, so best to look over the T&C's.

 

When you get the 10,000 sales and upload to Getty they dont charge you for the privilege

 

Will have to look at your pics sometime. Hey don't think of the newborn as a challenge - could be a source of good photos

Hey the lighting on that is fab. Bit eerie !

Thank you for the offer of a lift Hemlock, but I think the Wentworth estate area is a not pippo (dog) friendly.

 

Aww I have seen loads of (onlead)dogs at Wentworth, try next time

[Moonbird]

Well, here are my humble attempts of taking photos at Wentworth - spread over 2 meets. We've started with moi, the supporting act, so I can't wait to see the others - the star performers! (That includes photos taken over both weekends Imp!)

 

Sounds like you all had a great time, I love the pics of the statues.

My favourite place is the Japenese garden, I have pics that I took there last year... mind you I just point and click, nothing as good and well thought out as yours

[Moonbird]

I really did enjoy today, nice to meet new people and hope to see you all again on the next one, get thinking of locations guys!

Anyway I found a few minutes to put some pics in my album (link below) I'll add more when I have time.

 

Dave..

 

Some great pics, the cows and calves are sweet, poor frogs is nothing sacred

Ok ok I'm going back to my pets section now before I'm thrown out

Come along with us on next outing, maybe we can help you consider the composition etc instead of being a Point & Click user?

maybe someone could teach me how to actually use my camera properly as well? I really am a very basic camera person

Here are 2 that I took last year at Wentworth and don't anyone laugh or I will set my dogs on you
