Creative Commons allows the stipulation of 'Non-Commercial' in their licence terms, meaning that companies still have to negotiate with the photographers to buy their images. Of course, some people want to give their works away for free, motivated by a variety of factors, from wanting fame to simply wanting to get their work out there. Increasingly, there's going to be a debate about value-adding: professional photographers still have the upper hand in having better equipment (and usually technique!) and more opportunities to photograph events with media passes and the like. It's unlikely that amateurs get to be back-stage or at the door stop interviews.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17938930633619111005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1017189909578785721.post-78895155479996390912007-09-22T19:20:00.000-07:002007-09-22T19:20:00.000-07:00this is also about supporting photographers and ot...this is also about supporting photographers and other artists who make a living selling images.<BR/><BR/>If companies can get high quality images for free why would they pay to use them?<BR/><BR/>If you support photography as an industry please do not give away your images and ask a fair price for them do not sell them for a byline of a few cents.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274970928188387992noreply@blogger.com
