[USD] Fine Art Prints

[Soph]

There's nothing wrong with the picture, I'd buy it from a store yes, if it was maybe 50 bucks or so.
But selling photograps that you personally consider "fine art" just makes you look like a cocky, pretentious douche, which you aren't, you're a nice talented photographer.
Start a dA account and sell prints there, or whichever site you prefer, get your name out there, be humble and you'll get far.

And about the comments I made, I was dead serious. I didn't mean to offend you, I just find this very ridiculous.
If you came across a photo, selling for 2,5k, by someone you've probably never heard of, would you take it seriously?

You have to remember this is a metal print, and not a normal metal print either. I could see a normal poster print selling for that cheap, but not a high quality, weather resistant, scratch resistant, and water resistant print than can even be cleaned with glass cleaner. I cannot even have these created for less than $180, plus whatever shipping is. But oh my gosh, I do wish I could get these made for $50! I do personally consider this photo fine art, but that's not the reason I decided to sell them as such. I decided to sell it as fine art because of the comments I am receiving on dA and other sites. One person contacted me this morning about the listing. Whether or not they are serious or not, I haven't a clue. I do agree though that $2,500 is a bit much for the average family. Art collectors pay way to much on the other hand. Those are the people I am really targeting. For the normal person I could probably accept $500. (Price of having it made, shipped to my residence, inspected, then sent to the buyer. And just enough for a couple hundred profit. ) I would sell on dA, but they cut out a middle price. I would had listed these as poster prints, but I wanted something that will last a lifetime and not have trry about clumsy kids. I do apologize for going off on you. (Yes, that would be counted as going off, by accusing you of being a troll. I am usually more quiet about things. Had a bit of a bad day yesterday. )
As for buying a piece that costs that much...ehh..I don't know. It depends on how good it is, but if it's something by Peter Lik, most likely yes. He is well known though. So I see your point on that.
