Are you a journalist, a magazine editor, a book publisher or affiliated to the press? Do you want to show the latest astronomical phenomena in high-resolution and in full-colour to your readership? Would you like to use stunning deep-sky images, high-resolution pictures of the New Forest, tightly focused photomicroscopy images, or custom high-speed flash images in your advertising literature?
If so, then the Scientific Artist is pleased to be able to offer datafiles of our deep-sky and DSLR images for use in your articles or advertising literature.
Contact me today at greg@scientificartist.com to discuss how you can incorporate my images into your publications.
I also accept commissions for images of the New Forest and for technical specialist photography including high-speed photographic flash images (flash duration 9 microseconds!), photomicrography (images taken through a research microscope), macrophotography and macromosaics (mosaics of objects taken in macro mode), and panoramic mosaics taken using a panoramic head (including “Little Planet” panoramas).
Pricing and Ordering:
Pricing is variable depending on both the use of the image and the type of image you wish to purchase. For example a high resolution full page image will be more expensive than a postcard size image which in turn will be more expensive than a thumbnail. In addition, all deep-sky images will be more expensive than high-speed flash, macro or micro images as they take very much longer to both acquire and process. For ball-park guidance to costs, a postcard size 300DPI macro or micro image may range between £25 and £100 depending on the complexity involved in creating the image (for example, is it a stitched mosaic?). The price of an A4 size deep-sky image at 300 DPI could vary anywhere from £50 to £500 depending on the image (some of the deep-sky images have well over 60-hours of total exposure time and at least the same amount of image processing time) and what the image is to be used for – for example, use as the primary (attention-grabbing) image on a book cover attracts a higher pricing than an image contained within a book. The deep-sky images that take the least time to both acquire and process are the “single star” images. so these are also the least expensive deep-sky images to purchase. Please note that all images are provided on a non-exclusive basis, and that the Copyright remains solely with Prof. Greg Parker.
