Photo Satisfaction

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

A few more pictures now added to my free download site. All photos are free to download and to use. No spam or registration required. Sometimes it seems to be a lot of hard work for nothing. Other times it is as it should be and I do derive a great deal of pleasure from my photos especially when someone downloads a few. I hope that some of you do take a while to view them and download some

Why We Should Share Our Photos

Friday, July 31st, 2009

Free photos and pictures to download for all to use and abuse ? Why not? Many of us who have had plenty of practice in clicking our cameras, box Brownie or Nikon, have always been more than happy to bore anyone who cared to see our beloved works.

Then came the internet, digital cameras, free editing suites, such as gimp that blows the socks of of any darkroom. Add to this the fact that film and developing cost have disappeared. Why is it that most of us now want paying for our pictures?

True that we all need extra cash these days, but, unless you really are David Bailey, it is unlikely that you will get rich selling your photographs. The real pleasure in photography is pleasing the eyes of others and occaisionally stirring them emotionally, which for me is what every shot should do for someone. The one that stirs everyone is the one that says you are David Bailey!

You would probably do better financially with a few google ads on your site and a paypal donate button. So get back to basics and do your thing for pleasure and free….more to follow

This is my first blog so please excuse any naive mistakes.

Royalty free use of all your pics for all purposes except financial of course. You never know where your shots may turn up.
