Kim I wrote a long reply taking the points that you and Jim and Julie have made and giving my spin on them. Deleted it all. Just do it, make it happen, some of the shots on your website are quite stunning, both the portraits and action shots. People are always delighted to get something for nothing, but the longer you give good work away, the more difficult it becomes to ask the same people to start paying for the shots. Put a fair price on your work and people will value it more.

I won't go into the salvaging area. Like others I took salvage to mean somehow rescuing a rubbish shot to make it acceptable. Realise this is not at all what you meant.
