Images Sold - June 2021


Recommended Posts

A surprising sale for a number of reasons:

1. it's not a presentation

2. it's a Sunday sale

3. the subject is not a great seller

Are you doing anything special with your neg scans? I don't often get shadows as clean as that, without crossed curves.

Of course your negs could just be properly exposed;)

Just a straight scan with an Epson V750 Pro print scanner, yes properly exposed and the negs were home processed.

No reason why not with images like that! Buildings not there anymore- qualified.

 

Thanks, that's what I thought. Tried twice as well.

Even have a picture of the old train shed roof at London Bridge railway station, a listed structure, that was dismantled. My photo seems to be one of only two on Alamy.

Also have a couple inside the Brabazon Hangar at Bristol's aerospace works, whilst in use as a commercial works. Also no longer possible to repeat.

 

Oh well.

$ web editorial for what's becoming a regular seller:

Well, your pic has people with masks, a plane and a sign - departures - which kinda sums up the travelling experience in 2021. A proper stock pic... 🥂

For those that worry about QC of old film....I didn't get accepted for the archival route.....

Can I ask whether you were turned down, or just didn't hear back? I've applied a couple of times but had no reply. I have a feeling they've not been in the office.

I'd love to use that in a geography lesson asking children where they would choose to put up their tent!

I think I just put a bunch of stuff on Photobucket, when that was worth doing. Berlin in '94, , Hyde Park Corner in '79, an 80s bus. They approved it by return.

Edit: yep, deffo. It's still there. Might as well bin it- you can't link to it anymore.

Only 2% of my images, wish I had more, it's streets ahead of the main pseudo in performance. But film cost money.

I just didn't hear back from them.

 

I just had a look at my Brabazon Hangar pictures, and they are archive.

If I recall correctly, it was quite some time later after applying, that it was decided I/everybody/most/those with good QC record (?) could upload via the archival route.

 

Anyway, even non archive stuff film scans that I have uploaded have passed QC okay, and why should they not ? Always have done.

Just check for the dreaded dust !

It is indeed a nice neutral scan from colour neg which can be really difficult to achieve especially if just using Photoshop, but that is as much down to the scanning software I suspect. Is that the Epson software or perhaps Silverfast, which I think handles colour neg well with its 'Negfix'. NegativeLabPro is also very good for camera 'scans'.

I use VueScan from www.hamrick.com which I've always found excellent.

Thanks for the tip. Have been watching the video tutorial for NegativeLabPro and it looks really good. Going to give it a go.

Interesting, thanks, that's a testament to how good it is for colour neg then. I also use Vuescan for my film and flatbed scanners but haven't tried it for colour neg, tending to use the camera now.

Yes, Nate Johnson really seems to know his stuff, it's a very informative website, excellent integration with Lightroom  and they've got a good forum as well.

 

Interesting to see people's setups for camera scanning:

I uploaded this reportage image of a makeshift shrine in Vancouver just last week -- editorial website and social media (low $$). Interestingly, the website URL was provided in the sales report details. I believe others have noticed this as well recently.

 

UPDATE: I just checked my sales report again to check the address of the website and saw that it has now disappeared. Odd.

 

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. June 19, 2021. Haida artist Tamara Bell's installation of 215 pairs of shoes on the steps of the Vancouver Art Gallery has become a makeshift shrine. This installation honours the 215 indigenous children whose unmarked graves were discovered  on the grounds of a former residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada. Stock Photo

Terrific image for a geography textbook. Tough to imagine commercial use, though. 🤔
