Sadly enough that is the second highest sale of my Alamy career. Hong Kong, February 2019 Hi, cool picture. Although I'd argue alcohol is much worse! By the way, I thought I'd let you know, your image 2BM8CWT of the Shard is labelled as a '95-storey Shark' (which is a pretty big shark!) Steve 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Clearly a typo, but I also labelled several images of skylights as skylarks in the past. Somehow I believe Shark wasn't my last mistake. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It would very likely want to turn shard into shark. Paulette Edited May 15, 2020 by NYCat Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Ventura 7,413 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 A shot of my daughter measuring our cat....15 years ago. She is still a cat lover and now a nurse! That day, we did all kinds of measuring photos and many have sold. For multiple editorial use worldwide for high $$ 1 Link to post Share on other sites
NYCat 3,266 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) Speaking of distribution, I have two today with bulk discounts for editorial websites in Estonia and Lithuania. Tiny, tiny money but after a fabulous day yesterday I am not going to complain. I don't think I've ever had 5 sales in a 2 day period before... I don't usually get sales for my lions so I will put that one here. This was on a wonderful day when our guide Henry (very well-known and highly regarded guide in the Masai Mara) had noticed a lioness leaving when the pride was eating and he figured she had cubs somewhere. He was right and we had a fabulous morning... African Lioness with her three cubs in the Masai Mara, Kenya, East Africa Paulette Edited May 15, 2020 by NYCat 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

That sort of thing happens easily when your using some other than your mother language. Once in Italy I ordered a bottle of Pirelli instead of Peroni, poor waitress, trying to be polite and hold her laugh... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Sally 2,083 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 This $$ sale completes a 5 day in a row run of sales, though I don’t seem to get much of it so I guess it must be distribution; for a French newspaper. Sunset over the Pacific on Easter Island. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
wiskerke 3,985 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Clearly an image from before Corona/Covid. One of 7 today. Jay! Oops three of those are refunds/resales of yesterday's five. The rest will probably follow. All 3 distro to Germany btw but different usage. (Scratching head.) Earlier on a re-fund for a $$ PU. Now a different PU for $. (More head scratching.) So only one today, just minutes ago. Not this one, this is one of the three distro's all about Amsterdam. It's an electric boat with a girls wine party on the Amstel River with the Magere Brug /Skinny Bridge. From my own electric boat, an inflatable dinghy. Mid $$ - direct mail and travel brochure. Maybe the German distributor has some Corona discount going on. Or Alamy has some sort of Corona discount going on for German distributors. 😷 wim Link to post Share on other sites
