why go to the expense of framing i wonder if doing that you could have a"right picture ,wrong frame" situation and possibly miss a sale .
i wonder if just plain white or cream cardboard mounts are enough in the environment your selling in:

this is something i have thuoght about but what are the logistics i.e how do you display your work?
do you mount your photo,s either in a mount or on board?
how many do you take and what variety of sizes?
what do you transport them in envelopes, boxes, folders?
would be really grateful for any help as you say it seems a lot of fun,a friend of mine did cd,s and sheet music a few years ago around the market/fairs and enjoyed it. he now does books(collectable) and he still gets a buzz interacting with the public

least used is easy, sigma 170-500mm. only used a few times to photograph starlings going to and from their nesting place under my neighbours eaves 10ft from our spare bedroom window.
most used a bit more difficult probably 35mm f2.4 tied with 16-45mm these two are always with me

a friend of mine would like some shots of his aquarium. what would be the best way of doing this in terms of eliminating reflections?
took some close up of some of the fish but could not get away without reflections when trying to get the whole tank
any help much appreciated

my 5 are:-1 Pentax DA16-45 f4
2 Pentax DA35 f2.4
3 Sigma 10-2o f4-5.6
4 Pentax DA55-300 f4-5.6
5 Sigma 105mm f2.8 Macro
on this basis i should recycle my Pentax A 50mm f1.7
Pentax F 35-70 f3.5-4.5
Sigma 170-500mm f5-6.3
Tamron ad2 28mm f2.5+adapter
plus ext tubes & 1.7 converter
but i think i will take it all to Yorkshire next month and have a play, if i can get her indoors and the jack russel to take themselves on some nice long healthy walks
