I was originally enrolled into the GETTY IMAGES collection as a contributor on April 9th 2012, and when links with FLICKR were terminated in March 2014, I was retained and fortunate enough to be signed up via a second contract, both of which have proved to be successful with sales of my photographs all over the world now handled exclusively by them.
On November 12th 2015 GETTY IMAGES unveiled plans for a new stills upload platform called ESP (Enterprise Submission Platform), to replace the existing 'Moment portal', and on November 13th I was invited to Beta test the new system prior to it being officially rolled out in December. ESP went live on Tuesday December 15th 2015 and has smoothed out the upload process considerably.
These days I take a far more leisurely approach to my photographic exploits, a Nikon D850 FX Pro body as my trusted companion, I travel light with less constraints and more emphasis on the pure capture of the beauty that I see, more akin to my original persuits and goals some five decades previously when starting out. I would like to say a huge and heartfelt 'THANK YOU' to GETTY IMAGES, and the 27.133+ Million visitors to my FLICKR site.

My last 9 shots posted will make more sense after your read this. There is something that those who come to visit my Flickr shots should know, as my activity here may change. Last November, I was told by an eye specialist "Have no doubt, you will lose your vision." I have developed the most common cause of blindness in North America, Age-related Macular Degeneration". Mine is an unusual combination of wet and dry, untreatable and progressive. It has already reached the advanced stage in my right eye, making reading with it very difficult. In any case, I shall try to carry on and "see" what happens :) No timeline was given so perhaps I will have years of vision left. I hope to carry on for a while here but may have times when it is difficult - my neck has become strained from leaning towards the computer screen to read.
NOTE To Photographers. One of the causes of AMD is overexposure to UV rays. For decades I shot sunsets through the optical viewfinder of SLRs. I thought it was safe to look at the sun when it was low. My viewfinder eye is much worse than the other eye, and I wonder now if that might have contributed to the problem. Please compose shots using only your LCD displays!!!!
Another of my shortcomings was to not have UV protection on my eye glasses. Now I do - and it is not expensive. Please only wear glasses with UV protection. Save your eyes. I would like to not have to talk more about this, so comments aren't expected. Just wanted you to know if am seeming to be more inconsistent.
And thank heaven for auto-focus :)
