Photo Request

The November issue of a well-known country magazine will be running a travel feature about the Vale of Belvoir in England and I hope you can supply some wonderful images of the following:

1. Panoramic views of the area. The Vale of Belvoir is bounded to the west by the Fosse Way, to the north by the confluence of Rivers Smite and Devon, Grantham and the A1 to the east and Melton Mowbray to the south.

2. Belvoir Castle - exterior and interior views plus any events that take place there: e.g. jousting.

3. Melton Mowbray - views of the town

4. Grantham canal - it's a popular walking route so shots with and without people please. The pub, The Rutland Arms, is very well known as a stop-off point along the way.

5. The following villages are also mentioned:

Knipton - especially the post office there
Saltby
Eastwell - the church there is mentioned
Waltham on the Wolds
Woolsthorpe-by-Belvoir
Bottesford - including the River Devon and the medieval parish church

Upload data:

3. CODE KEYWORD: CLVALE (input this among all your other apposite keywords describing the image in full and NEVER use the Code Keyword as your only keyword.)

If you have something already on the site that you feel may be suitable, please just add the Code Keyword to your other keywords.

And remember:
A) The only way you can make your pictures available for consideration by the buyers in any Picture Call is to upload them to the fotoLibra site ...
B) ... and to include the special Code Keyword among your other keywords.
C) Please do not mark these images as Royalty Free
D) Do not send them to me as there is nothing I can do with them — my opinion would be highly subjective and probably not helpful.
E) Please also make sure that they always match or exceed the requested resolutions and/or file sizes.

Kind regards

Jacqui Norman

This has led to them hitting our servers as often as possible to catch up. We are installing new servers and storage to cope with the demand.This massive volume of automated enquiries really slows things down — Googlebot alone used up 7.8 GB of our bandwidth yesterday. We have temporarily banned search engine crawlers from some areas of the site, to speed things up.Another reason is simply the large number of concurrent uploads. The sophisticated fotoLibra system handles one upload at a time, and normally it's so fast that people don’t think about it. When lots of people try to categorise images simultaneously, a queue forms and everything seems to slow down.All this is in addition to the current transfer of all 200,000+ images in our database to a new storage facility in Manchester, prior to the installation of the new servers. This is using up a massive amount of our bandwidth. Not perfect timing, but we are beholden to server farms and timetables.We started this transfer on Friday evening, 18th May. It’s been running 24 hours out of 24 and so far (May 22nd) just over 6% of the assets has been copied over. It will get better shortly, and everything will be very much faster when the new servers are installed. We apologise and hope to have the system even better than normal very soon. Please bear with us. [/quote]As of today, June 1st, the transfer of assets is nearly complete. When someone tells you you’re on a 100mbps pipe, this is how you prove them wrong.Kind regards,Jacqui
