The woman is gooooood and has a varied background. Seems wall art for living areas and photography for magazines, calendars and message boards have almost nothing in common.

(14,559 posts)3. Yeah, me too.
It seems the things we as photographers strive for aren't compatible with home decor.
We look for extreme sharpness, vivid colors and attention grabbing action all of which is great for magazines and message boards where the image is fleeting and viewing time is limited. But to live with a large piece of art all day everyday could be jarring and tiring.
I'm in the process of setting up a Smugmug website and will be offering images for sale under the heading 'Photography for Home Decor'. I've rethought my entire approach to over-the-couch size images.
