chris_rabe Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 When I had foolish aspirations that my personal site may somehow make some money, I had some images I kept exclusive to my site, including this one, which have always been quite fond of. Still making my way through those images, and down to the last 250. Now using a much cheaper solution for my site, which has the benefit of having it's own online market place. Not that sold anything there - or much of anything anywhere currently I'm probably going to have to change all my exclusive RM content here to non-exclusive RF so that I can list some here as well as my own site.

As I understand, somebody correct me if I'm wrong, you can have Alamy exclusive images as long as they are not placed with another Agency. Selling from your own website is permitted as it is not another Agency. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selling from your own website is permitted as it is not another Agency. It's kind of an agency that I use as my site now. All images are available on their market place, but you still get the option to have your own store with your own prices, hosted on your own domain. Hence, any images I put there cannot be marked exclusive here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MizBrown Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Older ones from the Made in Jinotega (Nicaragua) series, but just uploaded recently: Tortilla makers in a traditional Nicaraguan kitchen. Yes, the younger woman wears that make-up every day. They have both wood-fired and gas cook tops. Dressmaker looking for patterns. NGO volunteers in the coffee shop run by UCA Soppexcca, a coffee growers's coop. The shop sells whole and ground beans as well as cups of espresso, cappuchino, and pastries. Processing was done on premises when I took photos there. They also process cacao and have coffee tastings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice scan Rick, I'm jealous, I can't get a nice flat scan like yours from my CanoScan FS 4000. Like your images.

Right now I'm using a CanoScan 9000F MkII for my new scans but for this image I used a professional scanning firm. It cost me about $80 for it. As I consider it my "masterpiece" and it hangs on my office wall, I think it was well worth it. Plus it was shot with a Hasselblad, so that made a difference too. Rick (edit) I just checked out your photo😊. Coincidentally, I named my photograph "The Last Rodeo" Great minds think alike. right?

Rick, Thanks, but the cowboys are not "my photos" That was back in the day that I featured a photographer every month.

Yes, I don't think it was nesting- looked at me as I got a bit nearer then did that. Unbeatable pic, if not very ornithological. I do have an ordinary one, though. We stopped for a coffee near Cape Palliser (see above) and by the time we'd been served, two dozen of these chaps had arrived, all facing into the wind, like avian weather-vanes. They though we had chips (fries to you). Apparently they're very partial to chips. Edited January 16, 2020 by spacecadet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I thought it was too early to have nests. Then I realized I have no clue when birds nest in that part of the world. I love chips (fries) too, so I’m in tune with the birds. I like tater tots, too. And mashed potatoes (covered in gravy) and baked potatoes. I support Ireland! 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masonic Hotel and T&G building Scinde building, originally the Masonic hall I love Deco. I just walked round Napier with my mouth open. Half the images I took are going up on Alamy- just extraordinary.. OK just one more for now, there are 98 but everyone else may get bored. Just realised this lot will take me over 10,000. 1 hour ago, Phil Crean said: too old/not rich enough! Too bad We now have son/D in L and granddaughter there.

Your suggestion got me looking so, amongst others, I found the American term ‘Private Brand’ for ‘Own Brand’ which is the equivalent term we use in the Uk 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
