A while ago I shot this photo for the abandoned buildings challenge and didn't know much about editing so its a little distorted. Anyways a person from here asked me to paint it and I said sure but extended an offer to it that if I ever get around to printing it I would send it to her to have as a comparison. Anyways I printed it and forgot who it was. So, if you know who I'm refering to then let her know I have a print for her.

Onto the point. I was ask for a larger print of this photo and when can it be ready. Since I can print any size at any time I told her to give me a week. Anyways my question is how much should you charge for a photo??? approx. size will be about 11x14 or slightly bigger.

I would stipulate a number of limited prints and number this on as the nº1 or end number, for example nº 1000 if this was your limit. Then I would print a nice paper sheet with a autenticity declaration, signed by you. I would not take in count the work or the time to creat it because you didn't dit it on that base, but rate it as an art picture.

For a limited edition art form no number lower than 100-150$ is enough to pay creativity. If the person that is ordering the photo is used to buy art it's a big bargain this figures.

Let us know how it went.

I can't give advice; but congratulations on your image getting so much attention.
