Stories about censorship, rippoffs and other delights...

Caro got the job with the municipality I work for too. So we can travel to work together wich is very nice. One thing that wasn't so nice is that I had to remove all my erotic photo's of her from my website. So the erotica-pages are painfully empty.
But it was a choise between her future career (the new job is nice and pays well) or removing a couple of pictures from my website.
It still feels a bit like censorshit...

This one is still on the website (my fav pic of her):

And this one isn't:

Well that's life!
Back to business... and that's another bad story. A couple of months ago I was asked for a photo of John Cale, wich I shot in New York a couple of years ago at an instore-concert.
The photo was to be used for the front cover of a DVD about Mr. Cale. Ofcourse I felt very honoured and made sure my price was not to high. John Cale is one of my all time heroes (Velvet Underground!).
I sent them the photo after several mails forth and back, but no money! And it was not a small recordfirm that wanted to release the DVD!
I even saw the layout for the DVD wich looked very nice!
I'll keep you informed about this one...
