Hi Colin Thank you for your kind words. I have in fact been with Alamy since August 2000 and made my first sale in February 2001.Since then I have sold close to 1,000 images. The best years in terms of prices and sales was from 2004 to 2008, since then there has been a steady and consistent decline in sales, and of course revenue. Most contributors I suspect could tell the same story. Alamy has changed so much over the period and despite some complaints I have remained loyal. I could spend all day talking about my experiences on Alamy but I must go and shoot some of the spectacular -

Suddenly I am not getting this facility. Anyone have any clues ? Thanks. Rayworth

It's come to my notice that one of my pseudonyms, which previously yielded my best sales, has now become my worst performing one. Not only that, this pseudo. is on the last page in the BHZ thingy when in previous years it was right up at the front. So it looks like BHZ could be possibly saying something which is more or less correct. Clearly, from my point of view I need to do something about this

I am intrigued. The image of the Beatles on the Alamy front page today appears to be a reversed and heavily cropped image taken from the Beatles for Sale Album, released fifty years ago this coming December. I am surprised to see that an image of such poor quality reproduction is being displayed on the Alamy site, given the currently extremely stringent approach being meted out by QC. It is so unsharp throughout, and I could describe it as fuzzy. CA is evident on the hair extremities and there are a number of artefacts displayed which could have been cloned out. There appears to have been no a
