Showcase your landscape photography
-
Ok I’ve looked into a few things, and it looks like this the best way to do it:
Step 1: Post images to this thread (any image related to Galway, landscape, building etc.. With a description and image name)
Step 2: Once a few images are up, the best ones will be chosen for display.
Step 3: If your image is chosen, go to http://www.photobox.ie and order your print in a “timeless frame” in brown. You choose the size (€58 for 25x20cm, €68 for 40x30cm) +’€7.50 shipping.
Step 4: Get the framed print delivered to the coffee shop…I’ll give you the address. Or if you live in Galway, come in and drop it off.
Step 5: Your image is displayed on the wall for the world to see with the description, photographer details and price of your choice.The images will be displayed on the wall for 6 months minimum or until it sells, if not sold after 6 months, I get the option to change it with a new one, giving other photographers the chance to sell theirs. Your framed print will be sent back to you.
If your image sells, I will let you know straight away and pay you immediately. To answer john’s previous question, if photo gets lost or stolen, I will cover the original framing cost.
I get about 100 to 150 customers a day so you’ll get good exposure.
There’s even a free cup of coffee in it for those who get their photos on the wall ;)
Get posting your photos!

Fair play to you pascal, pay no attention to begrudgers. Offer something for free and people start questioning your motives, no kind act goes unpunished eh? Would be nice if we could get this in Dublin.
Great idea. Like the sound of it a lot. Would definitely be interested.
One suggestion if people are put off by the price of the framing. Could you give us a picture sample of whats acceptable to you and we could get our photos printed and framed? Would this work? Naturally, the cost of transportation to your premises would be then borne by the photographer?

Maybe you’re right. I should be more flexible on framing. I suppose that a simple black frame is the best option. The only thing I don’t want is different colour frames that would just mismatch on the wall.
So let’s say black frame of your choice. To be delivered or dropped in to the shop.
To be honest, doesn’t look like there’s a whole load of interest so far. We need more photos uploaded to this thread and go from there…that doesn’t cost anything!
Thanks to you guys that have posted. They look great.Hi Pascal,
here are a few images that might be of interest.

High Tide at Kinvara

I think this sounds like standard enough arrangement, if I had images of Galway I might be interested. Couple things i’d look into would be footfall, locale, as factors in likely sale, and sure if you were interested i’m sure a meeting of minds on costs to be borne and sharing of any profits might be an option, plus any contingency factors for loss damage, and agreements on ownership.
Pascal I hope the business flourishes for you and for any artist/photographer who takes up your offer !!
Hi here are two images I’ve taken during my trip earlier this year.
Thanks
Smilian
