Home Frequently Asked Questions 
  • How much does it cost to send E-cards and how many can I send?
    The E-cards are a FREE service and you can send as many as you wish. The cost of maintaining this service, which includes the website hosting and additional bandwidth, is paid for by the banner ads that you see on the pages. Please help maintain this service free by visiting my sponsors. You don't need to purchase anything or provide any information, all you need to do is to click on a banner ad when you visit.

  • Can I use your images on my website?
    Please keep in mind that all my images are ©Copyrighted. If you have a noncommercial personal page you can use my images as long as you provide a credit and a link back to my site (http://www.ogphoto.com). You need to also send me an e-mail letting me know that you are using my image.
    If you have a commercial website (any website that sells a product or has any type of ad banners) then you will need to purchase usage rights of the images. The cost for the usage rights will depend on the location of the image on the site and the number of visitors the site receives.

  • What type of camera and lenses do you use?
    The vast majority of the images were taken with a Nikon 6006 35mm camera or F100. These cameras are rather old now and have been discontinued. In the summer of 2005 I finally went fully digital and purchased the Nikon D70s.
    28-200mm f/3.8-5.6 Super Macro II
    200-400mm f/5.6 LD (IF)
    I also occasionally use a 24mm lens. For macros, I use Kenko extension tubes. I don't like to use filters and the only filters that I'll occasionally use are a Circular Polarizer to bring out the blue skies or remove reflections and a Neutral Graduated filter when I want to capture details in shadow areas.

  • What film do you use?
    I now only shoot digital since purchasing my D70s. Prior to that just about all my images were captured on negative film. I had been using the Kodak Supra 100 but I also used Fuji 100 or 200. I had found that the negative films are better than slides for scanning since they contain more detail in the shadow areas.

  • Do you use a digital camera?
    All my recent images are digital (since summer of 2005). But the vast majority of my images were taken on regular 35mm film and then I scanned the negatives on a Canoscan FS2710 film scanner.

  • What digital imaging software do you use.?
    I use Photoshop which is an excellent program.

  • Who created your website?
    I created everything on this website and I'm the only one maintaining it. The website started out as a personal web page with images of my daughter. I really enjoyed creating that original site and so I began to learn more about developing web sites. I later added some of my nature images and it eventually evolved into the current site.

  • Do you sell your prints over the internet?
    Yes, I have available for sell some of my most popular images on the prints page. These are high quality photographic prints. I only have a few now but I will be adding more in the future. If you are interested in a particular image that does not appear on my prints page please let me know and I'll try to make it available for you.

  • Do you sell your images for commercial or graphic use?
    Yes, many of my images have been used in calendars, book covers, newspaper articles and in graphic posters. I can provide high resolution digital files of the images for various uses. If you are working on a project and would like to purchase the usage rights for my images please contact me to discus your needs: Oscar E. Gutierrez
