The humble potato scone and a cup of tea
The humble potato scone and a cup of tea
Two potato scones, sitting very comfortably with some bacon and fried bread AND a cup of tea, the tea being in a somewhat appropriate green and white hooped mug.
This image is another victim of Fotolia's search engine. Nonetheless it is still one of the best sites to buy and sell photographs and design.
Potato scones are a very popular breakfast item in Britain and Ireland. In Scotland they are known as Tottie or Tattie Scones. In Ireland, Farls and the rest of Britain, Potato Cakes. They taste best fried, but in these health conscious days, they aren't bad toasted either.
Sorry about the ugly watermarks, but this image is part of my 'for sale' images. If you really need to use the image, get an unwatermarked copy, here. Like I said, this image is a victim of Fotolia's search engine. The link will take you to my portfolio, where you will find the image in the latter (i.e. higher numbered) pages.
Unwatermarked versions of these images are offered at the following sites, for use in a variety of situations from simple website illustration to top-end advertising campaigns.
Alternatively rather than buy images, you might like to sell your photographs and artwork.
The following links are agencies where you can buy and sell photos and artwork.
Most of the photos you see on this blog are images I sell regularly through these agencies. If you can take a better picture than those I have on this blog, you will easily make money. Good Luck.

Hooray for fotolia
As much as I love being a 'microstocker', one of the things that really bugs me is not being told who has licenced my images, where they are being used and for what reason. Neither do I know the ins and outs of why this is. Client confidentiality is the obvious thing that springs to mind, and there may be data protection issues, so I can understand why this info isn't released.
Fotolia are one microstock company that has at least partly addressed this. When you work your way down your list of sales, each sale in the right hand column has a link marked which takes you to a sales page showing the following info.
Now I have hidden the downloader and company name, but the info I get to see, is enough for me to do a little searching and get an idea of who might be licencing my images and where they are being used.
So far I have seen that my images are being used by these sort of companies, organizations and individuals:
Reasonably well known design companies
Training and management consultancies
Some higher profile design companies
Computer memory manufacturers
Children's clothing manufacturer
Film and Television Production
Multimedia solutions providers
Computer Games Developers
Telecommunications industry
Domains and website hosting
Communications specialists
The Aerospace industry
wedding co-ordinators
Religious communities
Water ski-ing training
Major Medical Journal
Water ski-ing training
Audio Visual solutions
Property developers
Advertising agencies
network technology
Event management
Calendar producers
Corporate solutions
Sign manufacturers
Hotel management
Travel companies
Media consultants
Catering industry
Sticker designers
Equities brokers
Marketing execs
Print companies
IT infrastructure
Stage designers
Food packaging
Embroiderers
Toy-makers
Health care
Art supplies
Publishers
Artists
Being a microstocker can have its down-moments, but just knowing that my work is reaching such a spread of businesses etc, gives me a little lift.
Well done Fotolia
