That was in 2008.The charity have a tonne of my images for use as they wish, as do many other similar groups from a time when it was all just for fun. I wish I knew what I was doing back then and had instead started building an agency port and hopefully selling so many years ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Brooks Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 (edited) Royalty-free exclusive to Alamy $$ Calendar; Print run: 20,000; Start date: 1st Jan 2020; Duration: 1 year; Worldwide; Includes thumbnail use on the back page Sunrise on one of my favorite beaches on Maui just 5 minutes down the road from our rental condo. I easily cloned out a distracting photoshoot taking place up against the distant hedge. 30 years ago I used to have these early morning beaches to myself but with pros shooting families for facebook page, or weddings, or commercial clothing shoots, or selfies, or the pesky stock photographers breeding like flies, no more. Maybe Alan Beastall (see above) and are in the same calendar Edited November 14, 2019 by Bill Brooks inserted info Alan Beastall 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWilliams Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 A number of calendar sales today (wish all days were like today). It's probable that all the other calendar sales today were for the same company 'Calendar Club'. Check out their website and you might be able to find your images on a calendar. I did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Rooney Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 All my other sales in November, so far, have been window displays. This is a downtown NYC fire station. I guess this is a window display too. Or a display of windows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Brooks Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 RF, exclusive to Alamy, $$. Iconic timeless image with room for type. Shot on film late 1980s Pentax 6X7 400mm lens - 200mm equivalent. This image was part of a part time 3 year image collection maintenance scanning project that is still paying dividends. Collection maintenance, such as scanning film, updating keywords, deleting weaker images, and trying new things, is really important. Even if the photographer only started with digital.

Thanks, Bill. I lurked for quite some time and took a series with different types of people in each image, eventually choosing two for Alamy. I had a feeling that this one had the best chance of licensing. This scene unfolded only three blocks from my front door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blinking Eye Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) This one sold a second time. First time to Germany, this time to Brazil. And it's only my third sale ever. Brazil pays half as much as Germany, do we know why? And will the image really be a full page size? Is that what that means?

You really do seem to know how to get these shots in such a way that you show enough context but are close enough to show individual faces and passions.

I work on this every day, so it helps to get encouragement. It's interesting that this one photo was bought twice and zoomed once, which makes me think it's more about what photos you offer rather than the odds (i.e. quantity).
