lee valley park want to use an image of mine on an information board, it is to be printed roughly 50x60cm and is as far as i know is to be up permanently

never sold an image before so don't really know what to charge, i understand lee valley park aren't a charity but a government organisation so i should be charging?

Hi Jack,
Certainly you should be charging the going rate, dependant on size format etc. a good guide is on the Alamy site even though this is mainly for publishing, just dont sell yourself short. open a dialogue with them.

400 to 500 quid would be a good price on less than 300

Hi Andrew
Not sure what you mean by 'less than 300'. There will only be one panel if that's what you mean.
