Idiots guide to keywording
phomme replied to Mark Baigent's topic in Stock photography discussion and contributor experience
It seems to me when I made my first submission to Alamy back in the Fall of 2017, they had 70 some million photos in their collection. Today some 140 million, with these numbers you need some luck and great keywords to have your work discovered in searches. -
I believe is you upload regularly, (myself I add new images to my collection several times a week) you get a 3 star rating, less often, less stars.

Took me a little over 1 year to upload my first 1,000 photos, looking forward to 2,000 images by years end. I have had 3 stars way before I hit the 1,000 image mark.

accreditation for event
phomme replied to Francesco75's topic in Stock photography discussion and contributor experience
It is best to contact the show producers first for photo accreditation guidelines, and don't show up in the pit row with a tripod, and expect to shoot the entire concert.- 14 replies

Yes they have done so in the past, just that for the moment they don't issue any press ID's

alamy could do like some other agencies, after 10 live news submissions you can qualify for press credentials.

If you're on a public right of way - such as a public pavement, footpath or public highway - you're free to take photographs for personal and commercial use so long as you're not causing an obstruction to other users or falling foul of anti-Terrorism laws or even the Official Secrets Act. Professional photography is banned in London's Trafalgar Square and Parliament Square as well as the Royal Parks. Of course what is not clear is what can be interpreted as an anti-terrorism act?

It is always best to get permission from the producer, many times they will be more than happy to allow you on the set to get photos, either as they are filming, or between takes. But I know here in Quebec, some actors don't want photos taking of them from so-called 3rd party photographers, also on occasions producers don't want to public to see before hand any scenes in case their plot is inadvertently leaked.

My uploads from the 27 and 28 passed, 29th of March is till in QC. Of course it is Easter weekend after all, so one can expect delays.

Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III
phomme replied to Janet's topic in Alamy Quality Control and technical talk
Surprised to read you never shoot above ISO 320, a good number of my shots with my Olympus are done above, some way above ISO 320. My night shots are done at ISO 1250 at 1\15 second, hand held. -
Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III
phomme replied to Janet's topic in Alamy Quality Control and technical talk
I shoot with a Canon 1D MKIV and an Olympus OM-D E-M1. Love my Canon but now use my Olympus more often, lighter than my 1D and very little difference in image quality. See if you can tell which of my photos where done with my Canon and which where shot with my Olympus. I did have some reservations about the smaller Olympus sensor, but image quality is superior to my Canon 7D, and competes with my 1D Mark IV. -
