Like i have one from a museum in Romania, but it's just a stub that I paid 10 lei, but in the end i could have picked it from the floor.... I didn't get a permit to do commercial photos. You can email them and start negotiating, but I think it was something like $200 US as a figure they mentioned. I think you'd have to negotiate with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have sufficient Spanish, or a friend who can translate for you, email them and explain what stock photography pays. It's Mexico, not a soft bargaining place with a max. 10% discount like Nicaragua. Consider what they quote as an opening. However, if they have staff photographers, they may prefer to preserve their monopoly. The lighting in that place is brilliant. That may be what they're copyprotecting :).

Typically, I get (at least) twice as many sales in the second half of each month than I get in the first half. And while I can guess why this is so, I really don 't know. 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually have a half-dozen or so by this time of the month. P.S. Zooms are way up, though, which has to be a good sign.

I haven't seen any communications from Alamy but bear in mind that we've gone into lockdown again so it's possible that's having a staffing effect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not about to embrace any conspiracy theories just yet, but I guess it could happen -- 2021 is still in diapers. 👶 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevertheless, it is the highest gross and net of my short Alamy career. This is the kind of photography I enjoy doing.
