~Axy-stock

I'm not a professional photographer and don't consider myself as one. I'm only aiming to give something back to the community by providing photographs which someone else might find useful as photomanipulation or as reference photographs. Some of my photographs might not be quite sharp enough for photomanip but are still useful for reference photographs which is why I still added them, although I'll try and only do this if it is an intressting subject.

Well camera seems to be working again although it eats through batteries like nothing else XD. I'm considering getting a new one and selling my current one on although I'm going to make sure it's still working before I do that. It's a good wee camera but I'm beginning to feel I'd like something with a few more options to fiddle around with to experiment with. Anyways we shall see I need the money first .

Ok, after much debating and looking at other accounts I have decieded to allow my stock to be used for commercial artwork as well, however please note the one condition. I will be annoyed at people who ignore my condition because some of these photographs did actually take effort to take. I hope you all enjoy and benifit from this change

I have a large amount of photos which aren't good enough for my own gallery or I don't want them cluttering it up but might be useful to others as reference photos or for photomanipulation.

Stock Rules

All my photos, (unless otherwise marked in the description section) are under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 2.5 License found [Here]

If you are using my stock as a reference* for your painting, drawing or sculpture and NOT for photomanipulation I automatically waive the conditions stated in the license, however I would appreciate a link back so others can find my stock. I would also appreciate a link to your finished piece as I always like seeing what people have done with the photos I provide.

If you wish to use your finished piece for commercial purposes then all you have to do is either email me at axcelia [at] gmail.com or send me a note at my main account :nameaxcelia: with a link to your finished piece. I will say yes so long as you've actually done something other than just change the colours, but please actually ask me first.

* Reference in this case means looking at the photo and drawing or painting from scratch based on the photo. It does not mean copying and pasting the image into your work or tracing

Some Photographs of Berlin, there will be more coming however I'm waiting for BT to get their backsides and get my internet sorted... so far they've delayed me by 2 weeks for the phone line and now by about 3 weeks for the actual internet grrrr. Also my camera is broken, so it will only be backlogged photos appearing or those taken with a borrowed camera.

Updated my terms and rules for stock usage in light of the changes made to DA with the Creative Commons licenses being shown at the bottom of all work. I'd like to automatically say yes to commercial use however I'm afraid that some people would misuse some of my better photographs which I have other uses for and only posted up because they presented an intresting subject, therefore you will have to email me or note my main account but I check my emails more often just so you know.

More stock photos added mainly related to kayaking I hope they prove useful to people. I've also edited my guidlines. If you need permission for something please note my main account [link] as I've grown lax about checking this account.

There is currently a photomanipulation contest running on [link]ostdays=0&ostorder=asc&highlight= Terrouge the theme is magic. It's really only for fellow terrougians but if you are one go ahead and check it out.

About time I updated, neways I'm adding some more stock up now I've got hold of my second disc. I look forward to seeing the artwork it's used in.
I've added a brown butterfly, a moth (at least I think it's a common white wave moth), Mr Toad and I'm just completing the Garden Snail uploads.

Stock Rules

• You must link me back if you use my stock for photomanipulation


• You must note me showing me your final piece if you use my stock for photomanipulation (please note me via my main account as I've gotten bad at checking this one )


• If you use my stock as a reference photo I would appreciate a link back but it is not necessary


• If you use my stock as a reference photo I would appreciate seeing the finished work as I'm always intressted in how my stock has been used but it is not necessary.


• If you want to sell your work as a print on DA and it is a photomanipulation you have to ask my permission first, in the vast majority of cases I will say yes, so far I've never said no.
  
• If you want to use your work outside of DA and have used my stock then note me for permission (unless you used it as a reference photo in which case go ahead) I will in most cases let you but ask me first to make sure as I'd like to know before I find it randomly on the internet...


• If you've only used it as a reference and not the photograph itself then you do not need to ask my permission but I still would love to see your work

There are lots of great stock accounts out there in DA-sphere, here a few that I use for my own personal art as well as a few other who I think are fantastic. I've included a brief description of what each gallery holds (although this won't be a definitive list as they are always updating)

:iconalluringstock:
Female model - includes gothic shots, fairy & fantasy shots
Birds of Prey
Flowers
and a few other animals and objects


Female model - vintage photographs (contains nudity)


child model - mostly female
Female model - would make a brilliant barmaid if you were doing a tavern scene
Some garden shots as well


:iconattempte-stock:
Female model - all kinds of different shots and defienetly well worth a look


Female model - lots of actions shots and ballet poses.


Nature - there is some stunning nature shots which can be used for backdrops here as well as closeups
Arcitecture - there's some lovely statues as well
a few animals and some other objects


I have a lot more to share so I'll be updating this every so often.
