now I am getting carried away (17 shots)

[Raymond J Barlow]

I know, too many pics, sorry to 56k'ers

Daisy and I picked up the D70 from the camera shop, and headed to do a dual D70's shoot at Valley Inn in west Burlington., She got some great shots, but she is too tired to PS them tonight.

I got carried away with this cool looking Red Winged Black Bird, female.. she was posing up a storm for me, and I am happy with a ton of shots from today., actualy 7 will be printed.

It's awesome when the light is just right.

WOW, Ray, some awesome captures there! Love 'em ALL, but especially 1, 7, 12 & 17 if I had a gun to my head and had to narrow it down. It was a beautiful day to be out taking pictures.

great series, ray. I wish I could offer you some insightful advice... i think i saw a link to a rough pricing guide for these kind of situations somewhere here on TPF. Good Luck, let us know how it goes... :thumbup:

I met wit this dude for 1 1/2 hours today, and learned a ton about photography as a business., very interesting and informative.

He loves my stuff, and he will be adding everything I can give him to his site, and marketing my work. When he sells an image, and receives funds, I get 40% as my cut. He has an amazing history in this business, 20 years as journalism photog., and he seems like an honorable dude.

Let's hope!

Great captures as alway from you Raymond.

 

[Chiller]

You can never post too many shots Sir Raymond. Another brilliant series. 7 and 10 are my faves.
Congrats on the gig. Hope it all works out. I just met a guy last week that was interested in my stuff. I dont think if I will do anything though. I will see what he says.

Now I need to delete everything of my website, and rework all the images.. 830+, with copyright watermarks, and reduce them to 72 dpi! OMG this will take soooooooo much time. Now the hobby has become a job!
