Following the members pricing blog on Artfinder several artists say photographers should charge much lower prices as painters take days to paint a picture and we photographers can take many in a day and print as many copies as we like. One also said that photography is so easy now that anybody can take a picture with a modern camera so photos have no serious worth or value! (I note and do agree with Eric remarks about my artist friend.)
I said in the blog that I was not selling as some of my photographer friends (ie our friends here) said I was far to low so am raising the prices at once.
I have now done so so lets see what happens.Like many long standing photographers I think my pictures do have some worth as I have been doing it full time all my working life since 1960, I must have picked up a trick or two while most of the time made a good living at it!
