Request 6090. RAPTOR PHOTOS FROM SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES
I am looking for raptor photographs for a 2008 bird calendar to be distributed across the United States. The Barataria-Terrebonne National Estuary Program develops and distributes this calendar which serves as an educational piece promoting awareness of Louisiana's coastal habitats and their importance to birds. The 2008 calendar represents the third year in a row that we have developed such a product.
I was hoping for horizontal photographs of various raptors that are found here. I'd rather use photographs taken in Louisiana but will accept photographs taken throughout the southeast United States. For the final product, I'll need horizontal images at 300 dpi at 9.5 X 12 inches in size. Tiffs preferred, jpegs accepted.
My needs are photos for the following:
Red-tailed Hawk,
Bald Eagle,
Red-shouldered Hawk,
Mississippi Kite,
Swallow-tailed Kite,
Crested Caracara,
Black Vulture/Turkey Vulture,
Broad-winged Hawk,
Peregrine Falcon,
Northern Harrier,
American Kestrel,
Merlin,
Cooper's Hawk,
Sharp-shinned Hawk.
- Colour images ONLY
Budget: US$200 (for use other than book, magazine or brochure eg. poster, calender, advert, tv, website etc)
Notes on Budget: At this point, our plans are to print 25,000 copies of the calendar for distribution. Over 15,000 will be distributed nationally. The remaining calendars are distributed across the state. We are currently looking at increasing the number of calendars. This hinges on obtaining address databases of various ornithological societies across the country.
As we've done in the last two years, these calendars are distributed for free to all who are interested. The Barataria-Terrebonne National Estuary Program does not generate any income from these products. These are soley distributed for educational purposes. For these reasons, some photographers allow us to use there images for free, however, others require payment. We will pay up to $200 for a one time use of photographs if you require. "
