Alizée's Corsica through Dad's Photography
I know many of you on a regular basis check out Jo Jacotey's Facebook page. For those who are new, it would be wise to check out his photography of the Island of Corsica.
This man single handedly is selling Corsica to the world as a tourist destination through his photography. I'm hitting his Facebook page at least once a week to see what new pictures he has put up. Jo-Jacotey-Photos

For future reference I don't think we're allowed to embed his photos...
I think his little warnings in each caption say when translated "Rights reserved, don't use my pictures or else I'll kick your ass"

He is a truly great photographer. Wonderful stuff. A great understanding of light and shadow, while still incorporating color.
In "Sunset Bld" album, the picture of the woman holding the setting sun in her hand, looks like Alizée in profile.

It's not her. I know Lili's nose when I see it.

Close. I believe that is Michelle Jacotey, Jo's wife, Alizée's mother. The strong chin and the shape of the nose and hair look like her, at any rate.

Commercial possibilities
Quote:
<blockquote><i>Photo Passion Only No Business here</i></blockquote>but all the same, one still wonders how fine art photographers might generate an income from their work. I won't bore anyone by going on about how copyright provides scant protection for artists if their work is illicitly reused in a small-scale or clandestine manner. But that doesn't mean all is lost. Among things which are still conceivable are licensing by advertisers and decorative manufacturers. Display of fine art can also lead to solicitations for custom private photography. And even if photos can in practice be abusively reused by private parties without license, making legal use simple and cheap enough might still generate a bit of revenue. Many or most of the people who visit here are facile enough with digital technology that they need no help accessing content. But there are still vast millions of people, including not a few senior citizens, who need a turn-key solution if they are to have any access at all. One potential revenue stream is a cable TV or satellite channel which shows selected snapshots in succession, rather than video material. If such a service has ever existed, I know nothing about it. Perhaps it is not commercially viable. Another possibility is a paid subscription service using remotely managed digital photo frames. Some of these can communicate using cellular telephony instead of a WiFi-bridged local wired Internet connection. Alternately, digital media viewers can leverage a large-screen display already on the customer premises, but I have never heard of one which can be remotely managed. With all the billions of photos which are generated each year, it would seem that clients might subscribe to any of a vast array of thematically consonant photo services to fill their screens. For example, a Frenchman or Italian who enjoys his all-too-brief August vacation in Corsica might savor a stream of new photos from there all year long, while his vacation host earns a commission by selling him such a subscription. In pre-electronic days, I never hung photos, posters or other artwork on my walls. Instead, maps, charts and diagrams made their home there, if not blocked by a whiteboard, bookcases and filing cabinets. I wonder what people who were unlike me do these days - are screens slowly but surely replacing hardcopy displays when massive size is not an essential? The Amazon.com Digital Photo Frames Knowledge Center asserts <blockquote><i>Over the next few years, digital photo frames will become a universal adornment in most houses and offices...</i></blockquote>Is this just sales hype, or close to the truth? |
