In the latest in our occasional series of photo essays, we take a look at life in the Gambia through the eyes (and lens) of the amazing photographer Mei Catherall. Memories from The GambiaI first went to Gambia in 2009. Just a holiday. It was there that I realised I could actually do something useful. Inspired by a local school, Jamisa Lower Basic in Brikama, I started www.Dance2Learn.org and in 2010 was able to...

I've been busy creating an on-line way for customers to acquire photos from iSourceArts. Unfortunately, this project has suffered a set-back caused by the site I was using, alamy.com. Alamy have only a small range of cameras that they consider "suitable" and the Lumix FZ1000 has not been added to the list yet. This means starting over with a more up to date supplier of stock photos. As an apology for the delay, here is one of the "unsuitable" photos that was rejected. Isn't this a little like rejecting a painting because the artist used an unsuitable brush? Blog will be updated as soon as the new platform has been set up.  Full conversation with Alamy:
> ---- (MS) Abhishek Premnath (alamy.com) wrote ---- Looking at your account we can see that the camera you are using for uploading images is not suitable. Here’s our list of recommended cameras if you want to see what cameras we do accept images from - http://www.alamy.com/contributor/help/recommended-digital-cameras.asp. However if you still want to close your account we’ll get the process started and your account can be closed in just 45 days, but in the meantime can you let us know what happened? If we can’t patch things up with you we might at least be able to make improvements for the future. > Mei Catherall can you give me any justification for NOT including what is being hailed as camera of the year, that is the brand new Lumix FZ 1000? > ---- (MS) Abhishek Premnath (alamy.com) wrote ---- We don’t review cameras, we make our decision by looking at the images we’ve seen from them. The Lumix FZ 1000 is in our suitable list. > Mei Catherall Sorry? It IS in your "suitable list" or it ISN'T? > ---- (MS) Abhishek Premnath (alamy.com) wrote ---- Sorry that’s my bad, the Lumix FZ 1000 is in our unsuitable list. > Mei Catherall Then until alamy catch up with 2015, I would like to delete my account please. Thank you Worth the late night! Looking to trial the new camera, get in touch if you'd like to be a guinea pig! (Heavenly body not required :-) )  Nice to be nice :-) "This is beautiful Mei. Would you mind if I put it on my class whiteboard as the background tomorrow? they are year 3, so they are 7 and 8, completely open to having their minds expanded. Thank you Trying to attach a quick pic taken in the classroom, but a truly dreadful photo on my behalf though and doesn't do your pic justice! The children loved the skyscape and really enjoy seeing what I'll come up with next. A New Forest donkey, I think! Many thanks x. Yayy (to use teenspeak)" - Rae K., Teacher DCPS, Wells    "Ladies What" is featuring some of iSourceArts' work this month! With more to come, this inaugural post covers a pre-tragedy Tunisia.
From "Ladies What": "As a lover of travel I can spend hours trawling through Pinterest and Instagram checking out photos from people’s adventures... I can never get enough of their images, as they seem to capture moments in time so wonderfully. With this in mind I decided to launch this new ‘Memories from…’ series to showcase not only mine and Emma’s photos, but also those of some of our talented friends. And so, for the inaugural post, let me pass you over to Mei Catherall to introduce his photo essay of Tunisia…" - Keri Allan, Journalist/Blogger www.ladieswhat.co.uk/ |
