Does the company that took a photo of me at the half-marathon I ran really expect me to pony up $59.95 for one digital photograph of me at the race?

That's normal? my first paid photography job ever was shooting rich kids doing show jumping. so mind numbing but parents want pics of their precious on a horsie. doing a race is a big achievment for some people so I can see it working as an impulse buy. They don't need to sell to everyone but 20 people is 1200 bucks which is pretty decent for a day's work.

If they sell a single photo they probably already made back more than it cost them to be there. Also I imagine the type of person who isn't going to buy a $60 photo isn't going to buy a $10 photo either. May as well gouge the people who need to document every stupid moment of their life.

Actually $10 was about what I'd pay, to be honest. I know it's a business, but it seems like those prices are a bit ridiculous. For $60 I could pay someone to stand at a spot and take my picture as I run by. It wouldn't have to be a professional either, since it looks like there's no difference in quality.

Those people are at every amateur sporting event, no one's making you pay their prices, just pretend there was no photo at all.

I am in Kandy, Sri Lanka, and waiting in line for train ticket for a train that ended up being oddly booked out so now I'm fairly certain I'm missing something, but no one is particularly interested in answering my questions here because Sri Lanka is a loving hell hole, a giant wet tear crying and snail trailing mother nature's mascara and so now when she lights up a fag, she looks like a slag. And these kids are watching me look at a map of kandy I'd photographed out of a five year old German lonely planet on my ipad and like, hell, I wear my white headphones so everyone knows there's an apple product in my pocket, you know, so I gave them a show with all my cow photos I took in India, which is great because there's a whole bunch of them and a furry donkey at the end because just when you think I'm never going to stop flicking through them lo, a furry donkey and the sun it never shined so bright. Im all pointing and onomatopoeiaing moo because these are young kids and one of the kids says muur and I'm like moo! and all the kids say muur! and we're having a hella time of it when this English guy ahead of me joins in and points and says "cow!" And we all look at him like he's a loving jerk and then the kids go away. And I start playing with money because I'm nearing the counter and I'm still not entirely certain like, you're rocked but not knocked over and something is raining, it's dirty but with bright metal shards, but you ain't hearing anything and the world is darker than it was prior and you're trying to wipe your face because you're feeling pretty different, not in a bad way, but like different. But you can't bring your arm up, no matter how hard you try. And like it kinda looks like it's that there on the ground, your arm, is on the ground. And you're wet? And so I'm still not entirely certain of the what, if you get my drift, but that giant loving jerk Englishman picked a thing with me over using Instagram filters on my cow photos and how they're, the filters, the decline of photography. That they're the cause, like, and not a symptom or anything and I was spreading it, I was patient zero and my iPhone was, I guess, an accessory like Gaetan's' slime covered cock or Mary's cooking which was probably pretty good and why not that was her profession and his face was red, with an almost purple sheen like a Sudanese man or something and that's all I could think to say, that his face was red and he was misattributing. "You're face is red and you're misattributing." And it turns out 1/7th of what I said to him wasn't even a loving word. Although maybe he thought I said eight words but I sure as gently caress didn't.  Instagram. Important to amateurs.

I didn't know there was an actual website called Pixel Peeper. Thought that was just a derogatory slur in the photo lexicon.
