Missing Zooms?
JSaunders replied to aphperspective's topic in Stock photography discussion and contributor experience
My last batch of images which went on sale a few days ago are still not showing up anywhere. -
A dangerous game.
JSaunders replied to mickfly's topic in Stock photography discussion and contributor experience
I have taken candid photos of children I don't know, usually without problem. I also am female and of an age. Sometimes, after I take the photo I will smile at the adult with them and say something like: "She has such a sweet smile" or "Her hair is so beautiful" and they usually respond well, thanking me and not acting suspicious. I have a small mirrorless camera too. There are times that I have refrained from taking a photo because I felt the adult would not be pleased. I don't usually ask permission because I want to capture the candid moment, which I feel asking first would ruin. There are- 38 replies

Thanks Ed. Now done! -
Delete duplicate photos?
JSaunders replied to JSaunders's topic in Alamy Quality Control and technical talk
I have now deleted the duplicate photos. Interesting to know there is no mechanism that prevents you having duplicate photo names and all photo data, as well as duplicate submission title. I did notice that the identifying number of each photo that Alamy assigns was unique. -
I recently submitted about 10 photos which usually clear QC in about 24 hours. When I checked back they were gone--not in QC at all! I waited a few days and when they didn't show up I resubmitted them and they passed QC in the usual time. I did however, receive my Good News email a few days later at about 2:00 am. Just today I realized that the first batch had also passed and so mow in my image manager I have two sets of identical photos. None, as yet show up in search or in my portfolio. Should I just delete one set? I'm a little afraid now to do anything, as there seems to be bugs in the s

I do a fair amount of street photography. One day I saw a tourist in the park walking with a lens on his camera bigger than my arm. Not only did I wonder how on earth he could walk around at ease with that thing but I was wondering what on earth he planned on shooting in the middle of the city park. Not much wild life around. I believe in freedom of photographers, but you need to keep a balance.

What to shoot in NYC?
JSaunders replied to JaniMarkus Hasa's question in Community support: ask the forum
Also, the Highline can be interesting. It runs on the West side of Manhattan from 34th street to around 12th street. It's an elevated park populated by lots of people, with views of the city too. -

Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village always has a lot going on. -
QC speed
JSaunders replied to Alex Ramsay's topic in Stock photography discussion and contributor experience
All I can figure is that the speedy QC and five star rating for those lucky enough to have them is due to the over abundance of Christmas Eggnog! -
Mirrorless camera OK?
JSaunders replied to robvann's topic in Alamy Quality Control and technical talk
Or you can look at this lens. It's supposed to be a wee bit better quality, but bigger, heavier and costs more. https://shop.fujifilm.co.uk/lenses/fujinon-xf55-200mm-f3-5-4-8-r-lm-ois -

I use fuji mirrorless (x T-10 and now x T-30) and have had no problems. -
QC is Fallible
JSaunders replied to aphperspective's topic in Stock photography discussion and contributor experience
I had my first QC failure the other day. They said my photo was "Soft or lacking definition". It was an old sign on the fence of a park gate. The only thing that could be considered "soft" was the black lettering on the sign, but that was how it is in real life, as it's old and a bit faded--everything else was nice and sharp! I feel like maybe whoever looked at this is new and inexperienced! Since measures were also down for a while I'm wondering if someone is home sick and someone else just stepped in to cover! At least I'm glad they told me which photo it was so I just re-submitted the batch -
OMG! What will I do without my morning cup of "Measures"?
