Picture Of Skulls: The unusual candle sconce on the Wall is one of a pair made from driftwood. The bleached wood matches the Table and fits right in with the room's emphasis on old or recycled materials. Colourful letters stand on the chest of drawers, accompanied by pretty bowls and pots. These brighten up the dark wood and create a little pool of interest in this corner. They also offset the dramatic, but rather austere, picture of skulls, and the large plaster nose that is fixed to the Wall nearby.
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. |
