Looking for suggestions on photos for PRCA
WeatherGirl and Athena at the PRCA have suggested that I prepare some photos for display/sale at the PRCA. This then leads to the wonderfully difficult task of choosing, and I’d love some assistance.
Based on feedback from my sister and WeatherGirl and response from people on Flickr I’ve put together a set of 36 candidates. If you have a spare moment it would be great if you could have a look at them and suggest 3 to 5. (We don’t want to print too many in our first pass.)
Having never done this before, I can’t say anything terribly concrete about what I’m looking for. It would be nice to include a few that we think might sell, not so much because we have any fantasy about getting rich off this deal (we’ll be lucky to cover our matting and framing costs) but because sales generate revenue for the PRCA. On the other hand, I’m definitely not planning to choose based solely on ideas of “sales potential”.
Also, feel free to suggest pictures beyond the ones in the set; take the set merely as some suggestions.
Thanks for your help!

I’m not particularly artistic, so I’m going by what I think might sell! The Icelandic stained glass, the Way Out sign, the red fishes (also the alternate blue fishes). And I think the stylised one of Turq’s last day might also be a possible.
With all the above, I’m working on the principle of what people might like to hang on a wall!

This is wonderful feedback and very much appreciated! And don’t worry about being artistic. You’re almost certainly underselling yourself and overselling the buying public. :-) As I said, I’m not solely interested in selling things, but selling is an important consideration for at least some of what we print, and this is a big help.

The photos of the lake and fish get my votes. Absolutely beautiful!
