Free digital files? Are you kidding?

I’m thinking about allowing folks to download and print photos up to 8×10 from my blog. More accurately, actively encouraging them to do so. I’d post them as 800×1000 files. Perfect for printing. They could print as many as they like. They’d probably have my url on the bottom in small print. Maybe do something like a 5×7 image in the center of the 8×10.
Naturally, being a capitalist pig, this isn’t for sunshine and happiness. No, the goal would be for folks to enjoy the small prints and hopefully purchase larger versions at eye gouging prices. Thoughts?

Color Holga in Alexandria Virginia

When I was in Washington DC and Alexandria earlier in the month, I did some photos in color with my Holga.Here they are. I think the FDR memorial photo was just as good in B&W. The blue row house is barely 8 feet wide, max!

 

Jacksonville Florida at the Riverside Art Festival, and the Cummer Museum with a Holga

Here are some photos I did while in Jacksonville visiting with my sister early this month. Just got them back from processing and scanned in. The photos at the Cummer Museum and Garden were done after I shot a roll of similar photos in B&W, though I thought they were color at the time. I have several Holgas. One of them has some stickers on it and I always load that one with color. Well, that’s what I thought. Turns out it was B&W, so the photos I did at the European Street Cafe to take advantage of the awesome colors were in B&W. I couldn’t go back there at the time, but I did get to re-do the ones in at the garden.

The Riverside Arts Market is pretty cool! Lots of great things happening there every weekend in the summer. Lots of people walking around in cool outfits and with dogs and stuff. I know I did a cool photo in color of a lady that wasn’t on this roll. It must be on the next roll that isn’t done yet. I’m definitely going back there next time I’m down!
