Re: Flea Market garden photos

Sure to set off some discussion:

I appreciate Helen being upfront about the budget she is offering on behalf of Harris publication, but anyone who is tempted to give up photos for $25 is being taken advantage of.  I work regularly with Harris and will tell you I get 4-5 times that amount.  They are cheap skates and are always looking for new sources of photos - and use any source they can find.  I don’t blame them.  They find lots of cheap photos.  But I also know they will  pay of higher quality photos of subjects that are hard to find - like Flea Market Outdoors.

If you think your photos are worth more than $25, then ask for professional rate.  I can put you in touch with the photo editor.  Helen is being put in a hard spot, but I must speak up.
