| I sell the whole range of reproduction rights. Fees may be negotiated upon large volume sales or special uses. For Spain, I follow the official fee listing from AEFONA, the Spanish Association of Nature Photographers. This listing can be downloaded here (MSWord compressed file in spanish language, containing the listing for year 2000 till now). | |||||

Search
|
|||||
| All my archive is thumbnailed, scanned at low-res and recorded in a relational database. This allows to search for the image that suits best your needs and have a selection of previews sent in some hours. I can also send by mail a CDRom containing a self-executable slideshow of these previews, so that no additional viewing software is needed at all. | |||||

It is always a good idea of course to check my archive for something of your taste; if you don't find it, however, please ask anyway because the listing here is not exhaustive, i.e. it does not contain the current year's images. If I have what you do need, I may either send you original slides or hi-res scans prepared for your specific use. |

| Film | |||||
| Slide film in 35mm is only on Fujichrome supports, mainly Velvia (88%) and Provia 100F (12%); in 6x4,5 there's almost exclusively Provia 100F. All images have been very carefully selected for quality, sharpness and colour at archiving time. The original slides can be sent (by express mail or courier) in the case of medium format, and in 35mm for special cases or client's request; otherwise, routine procedure for the small format is providing scans. | |||||

Scanning
|
|||||
| The
scanner is a Nikon Super Coolscan 4000 ED that delivers RGB images up to
5.496*3.664 píxels, weighing 63 Mb at 24 bits, and 103 Mb at 48 bits
(48-bit mode is only reccommended if the purchaser needs to modify the image).
These weights result (at 300 dpi) to print sizes of ca. 35x50 centimeters. We can scan within a certain range of standard RGB colour spaces. If no directives are given, scanning is performed within sRGB in screen-intended images, all others in Adobe1998RGB. We could scan in CMYK for direct printing (i.e. in SWOP space), but this is not reccommended given the strong dependence of the result from the CMYK profile of the printer, that we don't have. Following client's wishes, we can either perform the image finishing and optmization to send prepared final images, or deliver raw scans without any further handling. Works are sent in CDRom via express mail, or by internet for smaller file sizes. |
