Request 9188.  REPOSTING: CLOSE UP PEACOCK 
  I am looking for a peacock photo, I want very deep colors; such as teal, blue, bright green, purple, and gold. I am not interested in photos where the you can see a background or the grass or anything like that I want more of a close up showing the peacocks face, which doesn't have to be centered, and the peacock feathers up, not laying down. More than anything I am looking for the deep colors. I want it pretty big, around 48 inches long, and the height to match the dimensions.
The photo needs to have both green and purple.
Thank you

Request 9187.  RECORD COVER IMAGE BY PHOTOGRAPHER BERNARD COLE 
  I am looking for a specific black and white photo on a COLUMBIA LP record cover, I think from the 1960s; HOLIDAY IN ROME, Michel LeGrand and his orchestra (Columbia LP CL 647).
PHOTOGRAPH by BERNARD COLE. It depicts an elderly Italian man, presumably in his shop, having a modest lunch.
He is sitting at a bench, with either a small table or wooden board straddled across his knees. He is wearing a white undershirt, a fine striped apron and holds a round pannini sandwich in his hands. There are two open squares of what look like waxed paper in front of him,each approx. 12 inches-square. One holds two pieces of fruit, the other empty, no doubt the wrapping for the sandwich he is holding. The man has white hair, a darker moustache and wide soulful eyes and just the hint of a content but impish smile.

Request 9186.  BEAUTY INDUSTRY IN JAPAN 
  We are running a feature about beauty innovations in Japan, to be published on August 22 2009.

Here's a synopsis:

The most common creations may be communications and computer chip-led - the mobile phone, the Sony Walkman the digital camera - but increasingly Japanese research and development is being aimed at the health and wellbeing market. The locals are fanatical about health (with life expectancies of 78.8 years for men and 85.6 years for women, they must be doing something right) and their pharmacies and department stores are correspondingly packed with products aimed at keeping them fit, slim and well.

I am looking for images that show the beauty, particularly the anti-aging industry in Japan. A popular brand is Shiseido. Ideally, images of unusual products/treatments being demonstrated in department stores or shows. The products that are currently popular in Japan are a collagen drink (Shiseido), a Face Shave for Lady, Sun Chlorella Wasaka Gold (a one litre black bottle that is a daily drink that is supposed to boost the immune system and known for it's anti-aging properties), and the Insect Guard Ring - a wrist band that prevents insect bites.

I am looking for images of any of the above being demonstrated/purchased, and also any other unusual beauty products/treatments, for example I have seen images of a facial where gold leaf is layered on the face. This is the sort of thing that I'm looking for images of.

  This is a general request for wildlife images. We’re looking for quality pictures to be used in the tutorial section of Digital Camera magazine. We are especially interested in images of British wildlife such as foxes, badgers, deer and birds. Red squirrels are fine but no greys please.

A version of the image will be included on the cover mounted disc that accompanies the magazine and it will be used as a source file so that readers can follow the tutorials.

Images will be altered and manipulated using Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Camera Raw so we may require the original raw file. However the emphasis is on making a good picture better rather than salvaging a bad one, so we require excellent compositions.

MUST have a RAW original - no film or jpg originals!

Note from PD: upload a low res jpg as normal, but you MUST have a RAW format original version available

  Profile Books are publishing a book called The Impoverishment of Nations,which is about how we got to the current financial crisis and how the ways governments are behaving will only impoverish us further.

I am looking for an image for the cover and Profile are keen to have a photojournalistic shot that contrasts symbols of city wealth (ie gleaming skyscrapers) with impoverishment, (i.e. homeless people or beggars, or one of those informal street markets where people sell absolute junk spread out on plastic sheets.

Another idea is to show perhaps a newspaper stand in a city context with a fly sheet saying something like 'thousands more jobs to go', or a street of shops all or most of which say 'closing down', and so on, etc etc.

The scene should be in Britain or United States. The image has to be
recent or about the current crisis ie not an old one of, say, the great depression/Wall st crash. We want to convey the idea that this crisis is unparalleled and unlike anything else that has gone before.

Request 9115.  REPOSTING: WILDFLOWER AREAS OF THE BALKANS REGION 
  We require an from any one of the following countries: Bulgaria, Montenegro, Macedonia or Croatia. If none of these are available Serbia will do. Preferably we would like a stunning image of the Balkan landscape with wild flowers in the foreground. If it is possible, having a local farmer or somesuch in shot would be fantastic.

The image is for the cover of a report created by the conservation charity Plantlife, providing information about 'Important Plant Areas'(ie. areas where rare species or habitats exist) in the Balkan region. As such some space may be required to place the title - ideally at the top but we can work around the right image. Examples of 'Important Plant Areas' include Mt Korab in Macedonia and Vitosha in Bulgaria - however,the image doesn't have to be of one of these.

Cover, full page:  UK£300    (full page, cover of book, magazine or brochure)
Notes on Budget:  As a non-profit, charitable organisation we do not have large funds available. The publication will be printed in the UK in English only but be available to anyone, across the globe, should they request it. The publication will be available free of charge and be non-profitable.

Request 9114.  REPOSTING: TROPICAL DECIDUOUS (DRY) FOREST 
  This is a request I originally posted back in 2007; I am posting again now in case anyone has had an opportunity to reshoot photos from the same place to complete a wet-season/dry-season pair.

Every three years, we publish a college-level introductory biology textbook. I have worked on three editions now, and I have yet to find a satisfactory pair of photos to illustrate the tropical deciduous forest (a.k.a. tropical dry forest) 'biome.' This is a type of forest that grows in the tropics, but somewhat removed from the equator. Unlike tropical rainforest (which is green year round), tropical deciduous forest has a dry season during which most of the trees lose their leaves (hence the name 'deciduous'). The perfect pair of photos would show the very same scene with lush green trees during the wet season and bare trees during the dry season. A wet/dry pair from the same region but not exactly the same place would be acceptable, but less ideal.

Tropical deciduous forests occur in Brazil, Central America, southern Mexico, southeast Africa, northwest Madagascar, south Asia, and northern Australia (at least according to the map in our textbook). Please note that not all forests in these regions are deciduous; only forests with dry seasons during which most trees lose their leaves are appropriate for this request.

Notes on Budget:  Price is per image (so $400 for a pair). Textbook print run is around 60,000 copies, but fee will also need to include reuse in e-book version of the text and in various ancillaries, exact package to be determined closer to publication date.

Request 9088.  WEST SHORE OF LAKE TAHOE, USA 
  SNOW Winter 09, Lake Tahoe
Looking for photos of the communities, people, ski resorts, and hospitality of the West Shore of Lake Tahoe. (Specifics below)

The story will be about the unpretentious historic feel of the West Shore, how it has a slow, family and community-oriented flavor as opposed to the glitz of South Shore and the traffic of North Shore. Many of the families here have had homes in the area for four generations. It's the type of place where families get together for marshmallow roasts and ice skating and bonfires on Christmas Eve and New Years. This makes West Shore, which has an old New England feel, a great getaway for an off the beaten path Tahoe ski trip.

This is potentially a cover story, so any images that successfully convey a sense of place and luxury are encouraged. Obviously, need beautiful snow and an inviting atmosphere ‹ our affluent, well-traveled readers should look at the image and immediately want to step into it.

The story is about West Shore and what sets it apart from glitzy South Shore and congested North Shore. Luxury in this case doesn¹t necessarily mean flashy (that¹s South Shore)‹the place is welcoming, people have lived here for generations and created a haven for people who want to enjoy the ³vacation lifestyle². Think meaningful moments, togetherness, appreciating
the gorgeous environment and spending quality time connecting. A big part of the area's appeal is the personal attention/customer service and the lack of crowds.

Oh yeah, the skiing is good, too: nice untracked powder, plus there's tree skiing.

Places: 
  Homewood Mountain Resort: scenic exteriors, especially any that can show the slopes and the gorgeous lake; the Mid-Mountain pavilion is supposed to have great views and is a local favorite

Homewood town: street scenes, showcase the photogenic little shops and general stores; again, we¹re conveying a sense of family and community, anything that speaks to the 'vacation lifestyle': coziness, welcoming, warmth, hospitality, community

The writer calls out Obexer's Market in particular, it¹s a
marina/bait shop but has a long history in the area: family-owned and operated by the Obexers since the 1920s and might be good for a scenic exterior shot

West Shore Café and Inn: again, scenic exteriors (it¹s sandwiched
between the lake and the mountains, no shortage of scenery here), but the interiors of the restaurant and inn/rooms may also provide some good shots, lots of wood and stone, natural/earth-toned palette. Since it¹s a holiday
issue, wouldn't hurt to have some gorgeous shots of warming, hearty winter/holiday food

Granlibakken: lodge and ski area, it was known for the ski jump
built in the 1930s

Tahoma Meadows: rustic, cozy-looking red cottages, may be some good exterior shots here, especially if the color pops with the snow

Chaney House B&B: a stone mansion surrounded by trees, may be some good exteriors here as well

Towns on the west shore: Tahoma, Homewood, Sunnyside. There are
grand homes (not new McMansions) in and in between these towns.

Alpine Meadows is West Shore¹s other resort. It has steep and deep terrain a la Squaw but with a smaller and more manageable size. The Sherwood Bowl, tucked over a ridge on the ski area¹s back side, is where the locals head to get great turns and lounge in the sun at the outdoor Ice Bar.

People:
Since the story is about family/community/hospitality/hominess, shots of people should show their spirit and friendliness, no stagey brochure-type mug shots

Rick Brown, current owner of Homewood Mountain Resort and grandson of the founder

Dick and Ullie White, owners of Tahoma Meadows
