All images and site content are Copyright © by Ashley Africa
(unless otherwise indicated). If you would like to use one or more
of my photographs, please review the terms below first, and then
submit a usage
request form.
Here are the terms for use of my photographs:
-
All use must be by my written
(e.g., email) permission. In general I'm pretty agreeable to
most reasonable requests, but
please contact me before you use my photographs.
-
If all you want to do is place a
hyperlink to one of my pages on your website or use a photo for
wallpaper on your PC's desktop, there is no need to contact me
for permission. I only need to hear from you if you are going to
display, print or otherwise use a photograph.
-
If the use is non-commercial, say
for a non-profit organization or local club presentations, etc.,
I generally do not charge any fee for such use. I usually only
ask that I be given credit for the photo in the form of a byline
and copyright statement (i.e., "© Ashley Africa, www.blackswanobservatory.com").
-
If a photograph is to be included
on a web site, I ask that in addition to the above byline (wherever convenient)
a link be placed to my website: http://www.blackswanobservatory.com
-
Also, please email me a link to
the page where the photo appears. This is purely for my interest
only ... I like to keep track of where my photos are used.
-
If the photograph(s) are to appear
in printed materials, if possible I would like to receive a
copy.
-
That covers non-commercial uses.
For commercial uses, say in a book to be published and sold with
the intention of making a profit, or an advertisement, please
submit a
usage request form with detailed information regarding the
use and I will quote a usage fee (if I deem the particular form of
usage is acceptable).
-
In all cases unless we explicitly
negotiate otherwise, usage is limited to what I specifically
grant permission for, and I will retain the copyright on all of
the photographs.
