    A Few Words About Photographic Print Rights and Other Rights.

      The purchase of a fine art photographic print does not confer on the purchaser of that print any further rights than the right to display the print or use it in any manner as the purchaser deems fit, such as to cut it up and make a puzzle out of it.

      UNLESS the purchaser of a photographic print purchases other rights, said purchaser has NO RIGHT to utilize the print in any publication whatsoever, scan the print, photograph the print for reproduction purposes, mechanically copy the print, or make any photocopies of the print for any purpose, whatsoever (such as to produce note cards for personal use, etc.).

      Purchasers of prints may receive discounts for purchases of further media rights which would allow the production of note cards for personal use, or on purchases of digital copies for displaying on computer monitors. If you wish to produce calendars or any other items for resale utilizing this or any other of Ron Sterling's photographs, fee and royalty arrangements must be made.

      If you have any questions about how you wish to utilize any of Ron Sterling's photographs, or you wish to receive an estimate of the cost of such use, please e-mail Ron Sterling at RonSterling@RonSterling.com or by or call him at 206-784-7842.

      Ron Sterling guarantees lower pricing than stock photography suppliers for the same or similar product and its various potential media rights.


    How to Purchase Standard Size Photographic Prints of This Photograph.

      Standard Size Prints on Less Expensive, Standard Matte-Finish Photographic Paper.

      Use the following buttons to order standard-size prints which utilize a less expensive, matte-finish photographic paper. If you wish to have this photograph printed on premium, archival-quality photographic paper, please use the order buttons further below.

        Secure credit card transactions: When you click on an order button found below, you will be taken to a VeriSign secure, credit card processing page.

        Authorship: All prints are signed and dated by Ron Sterling on a description card which purchasers can attach to the back of the framed photograph.

        Order placement: Print orders are placed within 24 hours of your order.

        Shipping: Delivery of prints can require up to 7 to 10 business days within the United States. Prints are shipped via United Postal Service (UPS) or Fedex in a round, large diameter, poster container. No signature is required for delivery. Deliveries to P.O. Box addresses will be done by United States priority mail. International shipments will take longer and will require additional shipping fees which are invoiced to the purchaser by e-mail. If you desire expedited shipping, please call to confirm details and pricing after you have purchased a print.

        Quality guarantee: Quality is guaranteed to reflect the quality of images displayed online. Occasionally, a print may show more or less of what is displayed online or a slightly different color balance. If this occurs and you are unsatisfied, you may seek a refund or a replacement print.

        Print size: Please note that since prints come in standard sizes and photographic images do not often fit the standard size, actual image size on your ordered print may vary from the standard print dimensions. Instead of cropping an image to fit the standard print size, prints are supplied with "full-frame" images. For instance, an 8" x 10" print will often contain a border, since the actual photographic image is about 7.3" x 10".

        Refunds: Refunds are made at 75% of purchase price, not including shipping costs. Return shipping for whatever reason is at the sole expense of the purchaser. Refunds are made by check. Refunds may take up to 15 calendar days to be sent. No refunds are made for unusable returned prints. Damaged prints are replaced at no expense after they are returned by the purchaser. Sterling Images does not replace prints that may contain slight bends, indents or other damages that are within 1/2 inch of the outside border of the print. To qualify for replacement of a damaged print, purchasers must call or write Ron Sterling to describe the damage and obtain a replacement authorization. For refunds to be considered or damaged prints to be replaced, purchased items must contain a return date stamp that is within 15 calendar days of delivery to purchaser.
