I would absolutely love to sell my prints - the problem has been how to get the money and how to coordinate printing/shipping. I think I have come up with an idea of how to solve that. See, the printing services rob the actual creator of the print/photo as they take a tremendous amount off the top - making the prints even more expensive as the creator tries to make even a slight profit. DeviantArt's program is absolutely wretched in terms of payment percentage to the creator. So if this idea works, I may just starting doing that. I'll see if I can put something in place in a week or two. Thanks so much for the comments guys - I apologize for the lack of correspondence.

It's funny how some oridinary things, when captured correctly can become extraordinary. I share Leah's sentiments of this picture. Details that I love about this are the indented sections of the wall and the missing bike seat which draw your mind to the fact that this setting, though seemingly peaceful is wrought with some imperfections and need for protection. Great piece.. I think the choice of b&w really elevated its power. Oh, and I second the point about selling prints! This one is simple, elegant and just wonderful.

What a great pic... you should definitely look into an effective way to have prints made of your photos... if I remember correctly, deviantArt has a 'print' account don't they?

I get a nostalgic feeling for some unknown reason. It reminds me of a simpler time, a more relaxed environment. I want to believe that the owner of this provincial bicycle is around the corner, enjoying a late lunch with friends and lingering over coffee. Perhaps in a small town in Italy...

Your photos are quite good, and maybe people would be interested in buying prints. You could use the proceeds from the sales to support a do-good organization. Hey PJ, I was just thinking.
