Hello Daniel,and anyone else who hopefully some experience in this area.

Similar problem here, a graphic designer wants some of my pictures for a 
website 
he's building for an international client (High End HiFi equipment). Any 
idea 
what the going rates are for images for this kind of application. It's a 
matter 
of 1 one image for the opening page and about a dozen for the rest of the 
site.

Here's a few of the images it's all about.

Thanks in advance and greetings from sunny Hannover

> There are many variables in such a calculation, but to give you an idea,

> 
> A couple of examples:
> Image size 1/2 page, 10 inserts during 1 month, inside placement: 
> 1886.18 EUR
> Same thing but with 1 insert: 410.04 EUR
> Same thing but 1 full page: 2263.41 EUR (10 inserts) / 492.05 EUR (1
> insert)
> 
> The variables that determine the price at Alamy are:
> -image size
> -image use
> -kind of media (e.g. national vs. local paper)
> -print run
> -placement (cover, inside cover, back cover, inside)
> -number of inserts
> -duration of campaign
> -territory/country
> -industry
> 
> If you can give me some assumptions about these parameters, I will be
