Some Information About YorkiesAuctions

Giving you a little more insight into the seller.

 

 

 

Welcome to my "All About" page.

About My Photographs.

All the photographs that I sell are copyrighted to me as the photographer and are not sold by anyone other than myself. So for the same price as some mass produced prints you can own a pretty rare photograph direct from the photographer.
 
Because you are buying direct from the photographer it means that there is no third party agent or retailer adding their share of profit to the price. So you save money as a customer and I gain from a sale, if only the rest of life was that pleasant and simple.
 
My digital photographs are all done for me by an international company well known as a global leader in photo finishing.
 
There will be some differences in colour between the digital image in the auction listing and the actual printed photograph because of how computer monitors display images compared to an actual photograph. The image may also be slightly cropped because digital cameras use a different aspect ratio to 35mm film cameras and that is the format that the photography labs use when processing photographs.
 
All my digital photographs are printed at 300dpi on professional photo finishing paper from Kodak or Fuji using Fuji Minilabs which is recognized for it's excellent quality. Fuji Minilabs offers digital exposure with solid state lasers and Fujifilm's advanced Image Intelligence™ image processing technology which ensure's a high quality photograph.

F.A.Q and Other Information.   
 
Question:
What is fine art photography?
 
Answer:
Fine art photography refers to photographs which are created not only to please others but primarily as an expression of the artist’s vision. Ten people can all take a photo of the same subject matter but each photo can be different depending on the photographers "eye" for a photo, this is where the creativity comes into the art side of photography.
--------------------

Question:
Do you combine postage?
Answer:
Yes I do. If you buy up to five photographs you will only be charged for the highest postage charge, the remaining photos will be free of package and postage charges. That can be quite a saving.
--------------------
 
Question:
Do you accept bulk orders?
Answer:
Yes I do. I define a bulk order as any order of ten photographs or more. A discount can be arranged for all bulk orders.
--------------------
 
Question:
If I buy a photograph do I own the copyright and can I reproduce the image, either digitally or in print?
Answer:
Sorry no. As the photographer I retain the copyright of all my photos. Don't forget that I have put the time and effort into taking these photographs. If you want to reproduce one of my photographs in print or digitally or include it/them in a collection of images (either on DVD or by any other means) then you must contact me first and we can agree a fee. I will keep the prices reasonable because it obviously helps me to have my images distributed and at the end of the day I like people to enjoy my photographs. Charities please contact me if you wish to use any of my photographs, I will usually allow charities to use my photographs for free as long as I am credited with the photograph.
--------------------
 
Question:
Can you supply me with a larger sized photo than the one you have for sale.
Answer:
Yes in most cases I can, contacted me for a price

A Little About Me.

Here is a little about myself so you have some idea of who you are buying from or selling to.

My name is Frank Carr, I was born in 1962 (Yeah! the olden days!) and I have lived here in West Yorkshire all my life, hence my user name. I have three daughters (all grown up and left home now) and I have two grandsons (TJ born in 1999 and Oliver born in 2009) and a granddaughter (Lexie, born in 2006). I separated from my wife in 2006 and found myself a little strapped for cash so may start to sell more (or at least attempt to sell) to supplement my wage's from the local council.

I don't seem to have a lot of free time but when I do I like to spend as much time as I can with my daughters and grandchildren. When I'm not doing that I enjoy walking, photography, collecting local amateur art, mountain bike riding, and playing poker online (just for fun though). I also enjoy messing about on Ebid's forums and other forums too.  

I think that's about all that I can tell you, not very exciting I know.

My email address.


 

Just to be a little different I have decided to add some links to some excellent free stuff as a thank you to my buyers and for people like myself who can't afford to pay some of the crazy prices being asked for some software, unless of course you are lucky enough to find a bargain on Ebid.

All the software that I have listed here is 100% legal and free to use. It is always a good idea to read the software information on the publishers website before using their software to make sure that it will work on your system.

Anyway! I'll shut me cakehole now and get on with the links.
