They are cute but have taken over an entire park in town plus surrounding property gardens. The smell is overpowering. The Council has tried various tactics to make them move elsewhere. They partially succeeded when the colony briefly migrated to the next town, only to be given a hard time from said town for sending them... Meanwhile in Cairns we also have a colony of Spectacled Fruit Bats in town centre. We had very high temperatures recently and the poor things were falling dead to the ground. The Council has installed water sprinkers that go off every 15mn to cool them down. However, a huge number have been lost and they have just been classified as a specie in danger. "What do you do?" "I work for the council". "What sort of work?" "I cool fruitbats". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Council worker is a contradiction in terms surely. Not a bad job for your CV though. Wonder how the bonus scheme would work? Per bat per hour may be.

My Novel Use sales have been miserable and for a use that didn't seem novel. My highest fees have been for greeting cards. This seems like a small print run, though, so maybe that is why it is considered Novel Use. You don't have to give an amount -- just a general idea.

losdemas Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Interesting use and adaptation of this image sold today (January use). Decent gross 40% Got an ISSN Quite pleased with the sale for a couple of other reasons, too: Did a search on a few other images and although the site feels predominately editorial, it seems that they use quite a bit of MS, so pleased that Alamy are in the game here In contrast to the MS shots I found, mine has the EXIF copyright in place (not my original, that placed there by Alamy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marianne Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 After a slow month, had another sale as the month ends: (It's after midnight here so figured it's okay to post again) A mill pond on Cape Cod. Unlike the last one, which was an RF image licensed as RM for low $$, this one is for high $$ and is a straight RF license: 46 MB4608 x 3456 pixels 3 MB compressed I thought this was RM but I guess it must gone in under the default RF license. Not that it matters much since licensing seems to be whatever the client is seeking. Of course the low $$ image came in before the royalty cut, and this one after. It's only on Alamy, but I haven't gone through and made any images exclusive. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
