Important Essential Features Of Stock Pictures

Stock photos are images taken by professional photographers who then proceed to sell them to those willing to purchase. There are many way that these images are sold and why they are bought.

On the Internet there are dozens of companies that will sell such images to people and companies that want the images. This business has been in existence for quite a long time and continues to thrive every day. In the case one is caught using a image they have not paid for, they may be asked to refund or pay for the image they have used.

The main use of these images is that they are used to explain an illustration of anything that has been put down through a text. Websites would look like skeleton if they were built without images. They would appear to be incomplete and very few people would want to visit any website. This is against what a website builder intentions are about; hence the need for them to upload as many images as possible. Most people prefer to visit sites that have images and ignore those without as it involves a lot of reading while the only thing required is the summary. People like to see more and read less hence there is no need to place appealing images on you websites.

It has been found out that the more attractive the image in an advertisement, the more clients will try out the services or products of that company. Therefore wherever a company is looking for images, they will check whether the image is delivering the message the way want.

Hiring a photographer to take such images may charge more than you can expect hence buying images that have already been created is far much easier. They will cost less and consume less time to acquire. This will go a long way in saving and helping a business. Just like website builders, companies will want images that clearly set out the message of the firm to the people without them having to think so much.

Companies and website owners are seeking images that are clear enough such that anyone can notice the easily. In order to take clear images, it is important for the photographer to gain as much focus as they can. Standing still and in a fixed point will help avoid images that are substandard. Also there is need to use professional cameras as they are able to create better and appealing images.

A photographer must also sit down and think about what they wish to communicate using the image, where to take it from and whether it will be worth anything. Snapshots are a bad way of taking such images since they will be unclear or with some problems. The photographer has a hard task of trying to think of how to best take a image. This entire struggle may be due to their intention to create a unique image that has a great message.

You will also note that the time used to create such images is quite a lot. The photographer will have to first think about the message. Come up with the best examples of where and how to create or take that image before availing him/herself at the site to take the image. Even when here, they have another harder task of ensuring they get the required focus before taking the image. All in, these types of images sell a lot and their uses range. Stock photos are a good way of making money especially those who are professionals in taking images.

How To Properly Pick Your Romantic Couple Pictures?

How often do you get struck by romantic couple pictures? Better yet, what are the questions that get into your head whenever you see one? Surely, like all others, the first thing that you would want to know is where they were taken.

Romantic pictures of couples are found all over the net. Just by using different search engines, you can generate hundreds of them within a matter of seconds. As a matter of fact, a lot of people look for these kinds images in the net.

Romantic couple pictures have been in used in so many ways. They can be use as designs of invitation or greeting cards. In other cases, they can be used as wall papers and posters. However your creativity wants to use them, they'll be at your disposal.

The romantic pictures for free in the net were set and shot in different locations. The truth is, it is very uncommon to see two or three images taken from the same place unless they were uploaded by some internet users. But, professionally speaking, the romantic images available in the internet were the products of creative minds and mushy imaginations of some photographers.

If you would try to search for romantic pictures of couples, you'll have different options. You'll come across with romantic wedding pictures, cute romantic pictures, romantic heart pictures and even funny romantic pictures. The selection is too broad that sometimes it affects your decision as to which image would best fit your project.

A romantic picture may be taken from a studio. If it is, then its photographer must be able to set the studio based on a specific theme. For example, if he wants to take romantic sunset pictures then he would have to imitate the lightning and view of a sunset.

Naturally, the outdoor is the best place to take romantic pictures of love. Outside, photographers can visualize numerous romantic poses for pictures. Additionally, they can have unlimited settings for romantic photos.

Romantic images are not just taken from area. Sometimes, photographers have to take long trips just to capture the moment that they want. That is because backgrounds have great impacts on the aura of different images.

Some cities are considered romantic. Most likely, photographers would take trips on these places just to capture romantic scenes. Some examples of these cities are Paris and Venice. Images of couples kissing on a bridge in Venice or near the grand Eifel Tower have a great impression on viewers. That is because they can appreciate different things through a single image.

As if the visible romance on the picture is not enough, an artist would even try to use a photo editor to add quotations on his creations. Because of that, selections of romantic pictures with quotes are also offered and exhibit in the net, publications, galleries and cards.

Romantic pictures of couples are not just taken from one place. Moreover, they were captured by a single photographer or portrayed by one model. To come up with great and romantic images, photographers must consider a lot of things such as locations, models, concepts and poses.

Bravo Asbjorn for your wonderful take, in pictures and words, on the corporate world in which we live!!

 

[Previous entry: "PICTURE THIS - making art for eternity"] [Next entry: "How to communicate through pictures..."]

See CORPORATE VALUES by Michael Juul Jensen at the end of this article.
Corporate values - it sounds boring. Corporate valuez..zzzz...
Storytelling has recently been the buzzword in management.
I went to a couple of storytelling seminars - zzzz..ztorytelling zzzz..zeminars!!!

Did you know that Pfizer Inc. has shown great interest in the combination
of corporate values and storytelling as a sedative drug for those who suffer from insomnia?

Managing director Henrik Thorning, president and founder of Fiberline Composites Inc.
had won the Danish Industry Initiative Award.
I always make an art work to the award winner.
I met him in his factory - I was searching for some inspiration.
He showed me everything - enthusiastically.
He told me everything - enthusiastically.
He had just finished a timeconsuming work of developing the corporate values for the company.
But they were not implemented, yet.
And.
As he saw the logo I had made to 1st grad at Hedensted school.....

Henrik Thorning was excited.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Make a story about SOFUS.
Exactly as pedagogically as the 1st grade logo.

Sure.
Sure.
And my very own storytelling concept had popped up.

A little bit of information to the reader:
Why a story about SOFUS?
Fiberline Composite Inc.'s corporate values focused on Samspil=Interplay, Ordentlighed=decency, Forudseenhed=foresight, Udfordring=challenge and Sund ?konomi=Yield a profit. The initials says SOFUS.
(......in English I still will call him SOFUS. Interplay, Decency, Foresight, Challenge and Yield a profit
says IDFCY....we couldn't call him IDFCY?)


for Fiberline Composites Inc., Denmark
Hi! My name is SOFUS.
My name has five letters.
They are the initials (in Danish) of five keywords,
that describes the values on which my company builds its business.

The first keyword is interplay.

Sofus Interplay

Here I am with open arms,
blue hair,
4 freckles,
large ears,
a big smile,
my very new overall trousers
and a red Shirt
inviting customers, colleges and cooperators
to play with me.
To work together with me.
Then it becomes more fun for me and more fun for you to go to work.

We will become more enthusiastic.

We will communicate better,
and what is most important,
we will be better troubleshooters concerning those problems,
that always will arise in an interplay.

Sofus Decency

Just for fun I have put on a halo.
I am not very holy.
I love beer and girls as everybody else.
But in a cooperation, I believe there must be some rules.
I keep what I promise.
If there are any changes in what we have agreed
we have to talk about it,
even if it can be difficult.

My intention is that whatever I have committed myself to,
will be achieved.

In this way I can assure myself and anybody else that my work will be done in the same way every time
achieving the highest possible standards.

Sofus Foresight...........

It is hard to foretell, especially about the future. Said the Danish humorist Storm P.
However we are not supposed to foretell.
We have to find all the elements, all the facts
that can tell us what the future probably will be like.
We have to keep a sharp lookout all the time.
We have to make good educated guesses.
We have to find out our goals.
Then we know which way to point.

We always try to achieve our goals.
If there is something wrong about our goals, if they are not realistic,
we will have them adjusted.

Sofus Challenge

Recently I was in the city of all cities, Paris.
I was in the Louvre where I saw Mona Lisa, I was
in Montmartre,
here I saw Place du Tetre with all the exhibiting and working artists, and
I saw the huge white cathedral Sacr?-Coeur.
And I saw everything else you have to see in Paris.
For instance the old Triumphal Arch and the new one.
I was at the top of them both. I had to use the stairs in the old Triumphal Arch,
but fortunately there was an escalator in the new Triumphal Arch.
The Danish architect Johan Otto von Spreckelsen has created a spectacular edifice.
Of course I was at the top of the Eiffel Tower, too.
But is is old.
It is rusty.
it is heavy, heavy, heavy
it must be hard to maintain.
When you are taking the escalator to the top it creaked and made disturbing sounds.
You almost believed that.....

I think Paris needs a new Eiffel Tower.
As I returned home I wrote to the Mayor of Paris:

Marie de Paris Bertrand Delano?
Hotel de Ville
5 rue de Lobau
75196 Paris RP

I told about the new tower, it is 50 meters higher than the Eiffel Tower is today.
It is erected in the park Champ-de-Mar on Place Jaques Rueff between the river Seine and Ecole Militaire.
The new tower is constructed of light materials free of maintenance and of very strong materials.
Splendid idea, Bertrand Delano? answered,
and asked for more details,
stressing that the architecture should be like that of Spreckelsens new Triumphal Arch.
Copying if possible some of the modernism and elegance of the new Arch in the Defence.

I went to my laboratory.
To invent the right material.
Concerning durability.
Concerning strength.
Concerning weight.
Etc.
And to find the right way to construct the new Eiffel Tower.
And finally to make tests.
As I had finished my work I showed the entire project to
Bertrand Delano?.
He loved the project and he was enthusiastic about implementing it.
SOFUS had invented a brand new modular system of building blocks.
It was world news.

The new Eifel Tower built
in Fibre Composites Materials.
Applying tomorrow's materials today. Next time you are in Paris, you must visit Champ-de-Mar on Place Jaques Rueff. Yield a profit Sofus........

I have put on my office clothes and I have had my hair done.
Now I am ready for talking about money.
To keep a business going it is necessary to earn some money.
Then we can still strengthen our knowledge and become less sensitive towards declining markets.
Our customers must be as satisfied as we are.
We must price our products reasonably, and sell reasonably,
so that we yield a profit.

And SOFUS became a hit
New SOFUSes and new stories were created


about Safety Sofus
about Angry Sofus and many more
As a tribute to the employee's children I made a coloring book in English, Danish and Italian
that the children can download and colorize

The story ...get rid og Angry-Sofus (in English) - the coloring book.
The story ...bliv fri for Vrede-SOFUS (p? dansk) - malebogen.
La storia ...LIBERATI DA SOFUS ARRABBIATO (in italiano) - il libro da Colorare. CORPORATE VALUES

By Michael Juul Jensen
Extracts from an article in e-newsletter INSIDER (www.insider.mondo.dk),
published by Mondo A/S.

Translated and edited by Asbjorn Lonvig.

The good story is met with sympathy in a time, where the
noise of messages is so extremely loud.
In USA the corporate storytelling is the latest tool in stakeholder-relations,
and in Denmark the attention to this tool is increasing.
In storytelling the company has the opportunity to illustrate it's potential,
a potential that is not shown in numbers and digits and
fancy business visions.
Storytelling is the opportunity to
communicate the values and goals of a company.

The good story is easy to remember and you want to tell it to others.
It is an efficient tool to communicate important messages to all
around a company - customers, suppliers, cooperators, competitors,
employees, the press, politicians
and not least stock-holders and potential investors.

In storytelling you have the tool to describe not measurable values and
the development potential of a company.
Concerning publishing these stories the corporate web site and e-newsletter
of course are evident. It's quick and relatively easy.
But it can as well be done by traditional means in the traditional media.
The point is to tell a story that makes it quite clear that
this exact company is something special.

Corporate storytelling started - not surprisingly - in USA.
Some years ago Scott Rosenberg, the managing editor of the famous
American e-zine Salon.com, wrote in an article "Story Time":

"a beginning wave of interest from the corporate world - which is beginning to see
narrative and storytelling as additional powerful tools in the marketing
arsenal. In a business environment where 'branding' has become a
mantra of power, many companies are beginning to think of
advertising as an opportunity to tell their corporate story to the world.
And marketers are looking for ways to capture stories from customers
about how they feel about a company's products and services.
Storytelling isn't just for kids any more - it's for CEOs, too."

PricewaterhouseCoopers is one of the companies that soon found out
the impact of a good story on a more efficient branding. One of the partners,
Bill Dauphinais, have said to "Fast Company":

"Brands are built around stories. And stories of identity - who we are,
where we've come from - are the most effective stories of all. This is
a powerful way to bring them to life."

Coca Cola has established a storytelling center i Las Vegas.
In "The World of Coca-Cola" the company percents an entire adventure world
in text, sound and pictures based on the Coca-Cola-brand.
Director Channel Deborah MacCarthy, Coca-Cola's College, says that there
is a thoroughly prepared branding strategy behind this untraditionally initiative:

"We wanted to bring the brand to life, to tell the stories of Coca-Cola,
and to express Coca-Cola's core values: fun, refreshment, and
specialness in people's lives."

The director of IBM's Institute of Knowledge Management, David Snowden
says about IBM's increased attention on the possibilities in storytelling:

"Organizations are beginning to understand that storytelling is not an
optional extra. Stories are something that already exist as an integral
part of defining what that organization is, what it means to buy from it,
what it means to work for it. These are the early days in
understanding the use of stories in modern business. The results,
however, are sufficiently good that we now know that there are major
benefits to be achieved from the use of stories and from the
development of storytelling skills."

In the book "The Springboard: How Storytelling Ignites Action in Knowledge Era
Organizations", Stephen Denning writes about how he - back in 1996 - discovered the power of
storytelling in motivating an entire organization to understand visions and bring visions into effect.
In his work as director of Knowledge Management in The World Bank,
Stephen Denning had for several years needed a better tool in promoting
new initiatives than numbers, reports, graphs etc.
At a meeting with the management he had the job to promote
a new information system.
For the first time he used storytelling.
Here is the story Stephen Denning:

"There was a health care worker in Kamana, Zambia, who in 1995
was searching for a method to treat malaria. The worker logged on to
the Web site of the Centers for Disease Control and within minutes
found his answer. This story happened, not in June 2015, but in June
1995. This is not a rich country, it is Zambia, one of the least
developed countries in the world. It is not even the capital of the
country; it is six hundred kilometers away. But the most striking
aspect of the picture is this: Our organization isn't in it. Our
organization doesn't have its know-how and expertise organized in
such a way that someone like the health worker in Zambia can have
access to it. But just imagine if it had! We could get ourselves
organized so that professionals have access to the resources
needed. Just in time and just enough."

According to Stephen Denning this very simple story had an astonishing
response from the management. The importance of having all information
in one place only, accessible to everybody even in the remotest corners was suddenly
very clear to the management. The following year a 'organization wide knowledge sharing
program' was implemented. The experience was the point of departure of an intensive
interest in storytelling, and in 2000
Stephen Denning published the book The Springboard
on this subject.
Stephen Denning writes:

"The attractions of narrative are obvious. Storytelling is natural and
easy and entertaining and energizing. Stories help us understand
complexity. Stories can enhance or change perceptions. Stories are
easy to remember. Stories are inherently non adversarial and
non-hierarchical. They bypass normal defense mechanisms and
engage our feelings."

Stephen Denning writes first and foremost about "springboard stories",
which have the purpose to engage people in organizational changes. But storytelling can
have numerous effects inside the company - not least in relation to
strengthening employees engagement in the company.
At the same time Stephen Denning points out the importance of that management
listens to the employees' stories. These stories are very sensitive tools for measuring
good and bad vibrations and the degree of enthusiasm - or lack of enthusiasm - concerning
visions and the management's decisions.

All of art is storytelling. From the caveman to da Vinci to Picasso and on, the images that artists create reflect not only their vision and skills, but the times in which they live. Bravo Asbjorn for your wonderful take, in pictures and words, on the corporate world in which we live!!

 

New article...How to communicate through pictures...

Wouldn't any of us like to know how?
An artist try to communicate.
Through writing.
Through music.
Through movies.
Through pictures.
Through........
Sometimes he succeeds.  Sometimes he does not.
When his expectation are high - he might not communicate at all.
When his expectations are low - he might communicate excellently.
Every artist has his own recipe.

Mine is simple shapes and bright colors.
Even when I write.
Even when I .......

You can't always believe what is written in newspapers.
But if it is written in a book, you have to believe it.
Or?
I would like to tell you about a new book.
It is written by the French author Alain Joannes, who lives in Paris.
It is called "Communiqués par l'image" - that' s French and means
"how to communicate through pictures".
It was presented at the prestigious "Salon du Livre" in Paris in March this year.

To me it sounds like it's the new bible to artists, designers etc.
You can buy this new bible at Dunod.
Believe it or not, one of the chapters in this new book is about my painting "soul hurting still".
I'll just show the draft of the painting and quote what the author writes:

The jubilation feelings given by forms and colors of Asbjorn Lonvig.
By Alain Joannes


"soul hurting still"
Acrylic on canvas 201 x 139 cm, that is 79.2 x 54.8 inches. Edition 5
Sold in Marcia in Spain
Inspired by Christmas 2002, North Jutland Art Museum where I saw Marc Chagall and Max Ernst, and by Native Art, American Native Art.

...the art of the Danish painter Asbjorn Lonvig communicates at the first glance euphoria in a rough state. A so intense euphoria that the glance can not move away from the piece of his art. Of course, the saturated colours are decisive in this very great glowing.
The coloured dazzling and the feeling of pleasure which prolongs it have multiple causes. As adequacy between artistic creation and the constraints of communication, the art of Asbjorn Lonvig illustrates an assumption of neurocognitives sciences: the neurons in charge of visual perception are first activated by patterns recognition, then by colors recognition, then by recognition of textures and movements recognition. In a piece of art like "Soul hurting still ", the sensory impacts of the forms and the colors are very strong and equal.
The pleasure comes from what the eye and the brain receive from the red, the yellow, the green and blue at the same time as they recognize the squares, the rectangles, the circles, the triangles, the straight and broken lines and even the letter “A”.
The glance thus filled by a profusion of feelings founds a generating mental state of pleasure. After and beyond the primary emotion, in a second phase of contemplation, the spirit endeavours to confer an overall significance on the table. It calls upon its repertory of already memorized forms. Then, the pleasure becomes ludic.
Functioning like a rebus, the chart of an unknown territory, a coded language or a mysterious diagram, the piece of art asks to the witness: " What am I ?" The many possible answers are mental resonances which give to the artistic communication a richness higher than all the other ways to communicate. This communication is intersubjective.
It organizes the meeting between the subjectivity of the artist and the subjectivity of the witness. The witness of the piece of art is free to refer to tropical sensory prints: association of a dominating solar yellow, sky blue, deep vegetal green.
He can also associate the table with an intimate collection of primitive art. He shall perhaps remember the geometrical abstractions of Kandinsky and Mondrian. Surely, the piece of art will be kept in the long memory space into the brain with all its resonances sensory, emotional, ludic and cultural. It is may be interesting to know that the joyfull impact piece of art by Asbjorn Lonvig is closely related to its is canvassed artistic.
High level data processing specialist then head of a software company, the painter found serenity in a pictorial creation which starts with digital drafts and finds its completion on a support – frame and fabric - entirely conceived and manufactured by the artist.

...and for the French in France, the Canadians in Quebec and Montreal etc.:
Formes et couleurs jubilatoires d’Asbjorn Lonvig.
Par Alain Joannes

...ce que l’art du peintre danois Asbjorn Lonvig communique dès le premier coup d’œil, c’est de l’euphorie à l’état brut. Une euphorie tellement intense que le regard s’en détache à regret. Bien sûr, les teintes saturées jouent un grand rôle dans cette jouissive rutilance.
L’éblouissement coloré et la sensation de plaisir qui le prolonge ont des causes multiples. S’agissant de l’adéquation entre la création artistique et les contraintes de la communication, l’œuvre d’Asbjorn Lonvig illustre une hypothèse des sciences neurocognitives, selon laquelle les neurones en charge de la perception visuelle s’activent d’abord sur la reconnaissance des formes, puis sur celle des couleurs, celle des textures et des mouvements. Dans une œuvre comme « Soul hurting still », les impacts sensoriels des formes et des couleurs s’équilibrent.
Le plaisir vient de ce que l’œil et le cerveau reçoivent du rouge, du jaune, du vert et du bleu en même temps qu’ils reconnaissent les carrés, les rectangles, les cercles, les triangles, les lignes droites et brisées et même la lettre A.
Le regard ainsi comblé par une profusion de sensations instaure un état mental générateur de plaisir. Au-delà de l’émotion primaire, dans une seconde phase de la contemplation, l’esprit s’applique à conférer une signification d’ensemble au tableau. Il fait appel à son répertoire de formes déjà mémorisées. Le plaisir devient alors ludique.
Fonctionnant comme un rébus, la carte d’un territoire inconnu, un langage codé ou un mystérieux diagramme, l’œuvre questionne le spectateur: « Que suis-je ? » Les nombreuses réponses possibles sont les résonances mentales qui donnent à la communication artistique une richesse supérieure à toutes les autres formes de communication. Cette communication est intersubjective.
Elle organise la rencontre entre la subjectivité de l’artiste et la subjectivité du spectateur. Ce dernier est libre de se référer à des empreintes sensorielles tropicales: association d’un jaune solaire dominant, bleu qui évoque le ciel, vert qui renvoie à une végétation luxuriante. Il peut aussi associer le tableau à sa collection intime d’art primitif.
Rien ne l’empêche d’invoquer les abstractions géométriques de Kandinsky et de Mondrian. Une chose est sûre: l’œuvre sera rangée dans la mémoire longue avec toutes ses résonances sensorielles, émotionnelles, ludiques et culturelles.Il est intéressant de savoir que l’impact jubilatoire de l’œuvre d’Asbjorn Lonvig est étroitement lié à sa démarché artistique.
Informaticien de haut niveau puis chef d’entreprise, le peintre a trouvé la sérénité dans une création picturale qui commence avec des esquisses numériques sur ordinateur et trouve son achèvement sur un support – châssis et toile – entièrement conçu et fabriqué par le signataire de l’œuvre.

...and for the Danes, in Danish as a service to my own folks:
Abjørn Lønvigs jubelkor af former og farver.
Af Alain Joannes

...det, som den danske maler Asbjørn Lønvigs kunst formidler fra det allerførste øjekast, er rendyrket eufori. En eufori, der er så intens, at øjet har svært ved at give slip. De mættede farvenuancer spiller selvfølgelig en stor rolle i denne glædens brillans.
Den flamboyante farverigdom og den følelse af glæde, der kommer i forlængelse heraf, har mange årsager. Hvad angår overensstemmelsen mellem skabelsen af kunst og kravene til formidling, illustrerer Asbjørn Lønvigs værk en hypotese fra de neurokognitive videnskaber, ifølge hvilken de neuroner, der er ansvarlige for synsopfattelsen, først aktiveres i forhold til genkendelsen af former, dernæst i forhold til genkendelsen af farver, strukturer og bevægelser. I et værk som ”Soul hurting still” indfinder der sig en balance mellem sansepåvirkningerne fra former og fra farver.
Glæden kommer af, at øjet og hjernen modtager rødt, gult, grønt og blåt, samtidig med at der sker genkendelse af firkanter, rektangler, cirkler, trekanter, lige linjer og brudte linjer og sågar bogstavet A.
Øjet, der således fyldes af en overdådighed af sanseindtryk, fremmaner en mental tilstand, der genererer glæde. Hinsides urfølelsen bestræber sindet sig i iagttagelsens anden fase på at give maleriet en samlet mening. Her læner sindet sig op ad det repertoire af former, der allerede har indprentet sig. Glæden får et anstrøg af leg.
Værket, der fungerer som en rebus, et kort over et ukendt territorium, et kodet sprog eller et mystisk diagram, spørger iagttageren: ”Hvad er jeg?” De mange mulige svar er de mentale resonanser, der forlener kunstens formidling med en rigdom, der er alle andre formidlingsformer overlegen. Denne formidling er intersubjektiv.
Den foranlediger mødet mellem kunstnerens subjektivitet og iagttagerens subjektivitet. Iagttageren kan frit referere til f.eks. tropeinspirerede sanseindtryk: associationerne fra en dominerende solgul farve, en blå der får ham til at tænke på himlen, en grøn der minder ham om frodig vegetation. Maleriet kan også få ham til at associere til sin private samling af primitiv kunst.
Og der er intet, der forhindrer ham i at komme til at tænke på Kandinskys og Mondrians geometriske abstraktioner. En ting er sikker: Værket bliver lagret i langtidshukommelsen med alle dets sanse-, følelses-, legeimpuls- og kulturresonanser.
Det er interessant at vide, at glædespåvirkningen fra Asbjørn Lønvigs værk er tæt forbundet med hans kunstneriske fremgangsmåde. Maleren (datalog på højt niveau og siden virksomhedsleder) har fundet ro i en billedskabelse, der begynder med digitale skitser på computeren og færdiggøres på et fysisk underlag - ramme og lærred - der designes og fremstilles helt fra bunden af maleren selv.
