Hi Stewart

I notice your "Cormorant and Pike" sequence made it to a couple of papers over the last day or so.

Great sequence - congratulations

Barrie :smile:

Well there you go fame at last, I took this sequence 4 years ago, and it was the very first post that I put on here, since then I didn't do any thing with the images, as I have never tried to sell any of any of my pictures, but a friend kept on at me, so in the end I put them on a CD and told him to get on with it.What a surprise, in 5 major papers and two TV shows, so it just goes to show!!!Thank you for all your kind comments....

I was out with Stewart today, and he proudly showed me over half a dozen National Newspapers with the sequence in.

A great capture indeed, well done!!!!! :toast:

Just seen these pics. Remarkable capture. I was talking to a guy recently who had caught a sequence of a fox stealing goose eggs from an island nest and carrying them back to the mainland. He tried to sell them everywhere with no success until somebody put him in touch with an agency on the south coast. They got the pics into 7 national dailies and his 40% cut of the money bought him a big Sigma lens. Is 40% a typical share does anybody know? :toast: :toast: Eric

If any one wants to know the agency that took my images were the Bournemouth news and picture service, and they have a web site.......
thanks once again for all your kind wishes.....

Eric,
A news agency I`ve used in the past down in the South West pays 50%.
