Judging by the number of folks who now have them on their walls, I'd say with some considerable success! These are true photographs (not inkjet prints) and are either 8x10" or 8x12" in size. Each one is individually signed, numbered & matted in an basic, black 11x14" frame, by yours truly. If you consider the cost of getting anything framed, these days, your first question has to be "how does he do it?" Well, it's simple, I found a source of very attractive, but inexpensive, frames which look very much like the basic black metal frames that most of us are so fond of for our own shots. I then went out and bought a mat cutter, a supply of mat board and learned how to do the whole thing myself! (I'd checked with a dozen or more framers and none of them would do the framing for as little as I sell my framed prints! And that's in lots of a dozen at a time!) However, my supply of frames is finite, as my supplier has gone out of business, and I have been unable to find another source. If (when) I am forced to switch to metal frames, my price will have to increase ... somewhere between $20 and $30, just to cover the framing costs! This problem is being exacerbated by the fact that my photos have been recently been accepted for sale by the Kamloops Wildlife Park. So, if you've been thinking of getting one, might I suggest that now is the time? There are 28 different photos available and you can see them all, at: www.telyt.com Visa & Mastercard accepted though PayPal, of course. Thanks for reading. --- David Young, Logan Lake, CANADA Wildlife Photographs: http://www.telyt.com/ Personal Web-pages: http://www3.telus.net/~telyt Stock Photography at: http://tinyurl.com/2amll4
