I like your enthusiasm
September 15th, 2006One of you, though I'm not sure who yet, was very enthused by the announcement of my "new photoblog":http://djamesphoto.com/arranginglight/. So enthused that you ordered a very large print under the unintentional "at cost" pricing that it defaulted to (thanks for that, ExposureManager). So, thank you, I think. Now, who are you?
Since it was an "at cost" order, ExposureManager doesn't give me the customer information (huh? why not?). It just wants me to upload my print-quality image so they can ship the order. So now I'm working with their Customer Service to figure out how to cancel the order and contact whoever it was so that I can straighten this whole mess out.
I don't mind selling an "at cost" image to the enthusiastic new patron or existing fan who placed the order. In fact, the fact that it happened delights me. However, I don't want to sell an "at cost" image to some random link follower who happened to know a *very good deal* when he saw it.

I think I'm the enthusiastic one. I placed an order for a print of "portrait of a cow under a rising sun" as a gift for my stepfather this morning. I'd still like to get the print. Please drop me a line so we can work something out. (My email address is attached to this comment.) I've been following your blog for a while now and I definately think your work is worth more than "at cost" :)
