Ethnic Picture Among: With its roots embedded in the French colonization of the early 1600's, and with its population overwhelmingly French in language and origin, Quebec presents a unique ethnic picture among the areas of North America. Precursor of all the other provinces—it became the Province of Quebec following the cession of New France to Great Britain in 1763—Quebec has preserved in its character and culture much of the atmosphere of Old France while playing a leading role in the advance of Canada in the modern world.
The advantages to the buyer are obvious. Does it seem like a bad arrangement for the photographer? At first glance it might seem so, but when this same picture is sold over and over, perhaps fifty times in the course of years, the photographer eventually realizes a handsome total return for his effort in shooting the picture for stock sales.
That's why the stock picture photographer doesn't get rich quick, but enjoys a long-term income advantage for his work. Many a picture has earned, over a period of years, more than $1,000 in fees.
The picture was important because it constituted legal evidence. My would-be client didn't want to take a chance on entrusting this picture to just any photographer, because he was afraid the picture might be muffed.
I turned down the job for two reasons: first because I don't want my Camera to embarrass any woman and second because I didn't want to be dragged into court as a witness in the divorce case. |
