Oooh Getty!

The title works best if you read it in a Frank Spencer voice, or then again maybe on second thoughts it doesn't really work at all. Anyhow, a very quick post as I'm supposed to be moving house at the moment. Ages ago, I submitted some photos to Getty Images for sale on their image library as part of their Flickr Collection. I found out this week that they've accepted a few of them so I've been busily filling out contracts, sorting out model releases and other such grown-up things which have been successfully distracting me from the more pressing task of boxing up my worldly possessions.


I'm very excited and flattered by the whole thing, mainly because it fuels my daydreams that I could be more than just an enthusiastic amateur photographer at some point. I have a suspicion I won't be able to retire on the proceeds just yet, but some cash is better than no cash. If nothing else it might help subsidise my eBay addiction which would be no bad thing.

There's only five shots up for sale at the moment, but fingers crossed they might take a few more as time goes on.
