OK, you too can now own a piece of this action – as in choosing and buying a great piece of art. Here are some guidelines and information to help you out.
ROGAN COLES PHOTO SHOP PRICE GUIDE
There are several things at play here. We have our web store out front here – as in the home page. In general, this will have all the information you may be looking for when it comes to buying a print of my work from this site.
While this website is still a work in progress and that the products are only partially set up in the web store, we’ve included this general price guide. If there’s something here you like on this site or, at one of our sister websites, please make a note of the picture details and contact us via our contact page. Most images are captioned and have references numbers.
MAKING A PURCHASE:
For the time being, please use the site’s contact form to drop me a line. In making a request – either for a print purchase or other image use, please list the image’s titles, the size or sizes you want and the quantities you would like to purchase. By return, I will then send you a quotation together with PayPal or other payment method instructions. Your shipment will be made within two weeks after your payment has cleared. Shipping charges are extra and will be quoted after receiving your order. We don’t do framing nor do we supply print mats.
PRINTS:
Most of the images found on this site are made using digital capture. Some images where shot using film. They, in turn, have been digitalised. Prints – as digital archival pigment prints – are available in the following print sizes and prices:
- 8 x 12 inches (the longest edge being 12 inches) – US$145.00 (about HK$1,100.00)
- 12 x 18 inches (the longest edge being 18 inches) – US$320.00 (about HK$2,500.00)
- 16 x 24 inches (the longest edge being 24 inches) – US$550.00 (about HK$4,500.00)
- 24 x 36 inches (the longest edge being 36 inches) – US$1,250.00 (about HK$9,600.00)
- Print size ratios may vary depending on the digital image’s aspect ratio. Typically, most images on this site have 3:2 aspect ratio.
- Larger prints are available on request.
- Prints will be signed and dated
- Each print sold comes with its own Certificate of Authenticity.
DIGITAL IMAGE LICENCING
Rights Managed digital images are available starting from US$250.00 per image per stated usage. I do not do any “all uses, use all the time” Royalty Free digital image distribution. If you’re looking for a general, all encompassing stock picture library, you’ve obviously come to the wrong place. Alamy, Getty Images, shutterstock, etal will probably better suit your needs. If you are here, then you have come here for a particular reason, enough to say that you cannot find elsewhere what you can find or have found here. And that’s it, that’s my price. If you’re looking for low-res comps downloads, no problem – just pay the full price and, if you don’t get around to using the image, I’ll reimburse you the balance
WEBSITE CREDITS
About this website – in developing this website, we currently deploy the following services and tools:
- The front end of this website is based on Online Shop, an eCommerce theme for WordPress, by ACME Themes.
- The website’s back end operations and functions are provided by WordPress.
- Hosting services are provided by Digital Ocean Inc., a USA based provider of premium Internet Services. They have a real good deal going whereby, if you use my referral code, you get a $50 credit to initially try out their services. If you like what they have going, obviously you’ll stay around for longer. Also, Digital Ocean provides some of the better documentation and “how to’s” compared to many of the other hosting companies offering similar services out there – and, to date, I’ve tried quite a few. That Digital Ocean referral link
- Image compression is provided by Kraken.io. Kraken does what it is supposed to do and does a very fine job at that – as in image compression. I get compression levels of up to 50% and all this with little if any visible loss in image quality. Give them a try. Use this referral link as an introduction to their services – referral link.
- The font featured in the watermarks appearing on many of the images featured in our on-line shop is Xtreem 2. Usage comes courtesy of Måns Grebäck. Look him up, he has some interesting working going on there.
The facilities and functions provided by this theme have made this effort such a pleasure. It’s taken me less than a week to basically set up this website, it was that easy. OK, granted, much of the work was already done elsewhere and then, ported over to this site. But, like a good pair of shoes, all I had to do was put them on. The same with this site, I hope you like as much as I do. Better still, I hope it helps make your buying choice and decisions much better than my last attempts.
That said and, as they say, “Great work is seldom created by chance”. Nor is “great work” created alone or in the dark, so to speak. Here I would like to thank all those who have participated directly in the making of this website and also to all those countless others who are forever posting solutions, suggestions and/or continually working on and updating many of the plugins and services deployed here – a big THANK YOU to all.
