I'll be selling this one...

at Colonal James Jabara (KAAO) where I work:

I ordered 2 11X16 prints a while back with the intention of ordering more when I dropped my external hard drive where the file was located.  I stopped by the print shop the other day to pick up some others and I asked them if they still had it on file and what luck they did!  I'm going to have them email the file to me when I pick up the 2 more I ordered.  Unfortunately its only the JPEG and not the RAW.

Any ideas of how much I should price it at?  It will be framed 11X16 and the FBO gets 30% of the selling price

Ive seen photos sell for $50+

It all depends on how much you value your time.  If your just selling the occasional photo you really liked then think in the range of $30-40 just for some pocket cash or gas money.  If your trying to do this more often then push the price up a bit to help support your hobby.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

A friend of mine sells hers for $35, but you should sell it for what it is worth to YOU since you are the artist.

Thanks for the input guys, however the print itself cost $16 to print then I believe the fame will cost 30-40 dollars, hopefully I can matt it myself.  Then on top of that the FBO will get 20-30% of the retail price, so I think it will be a bit more expensive.  Another photographer has prints for sale  for upwards of $185, but I'm not gonna go that high unless theres alot of demand for it!
