Interesting video Photography tutorial by Irish Landscape photographers

[Enda Cavanagh]

Hi all
I downloaded a pretty cool video tutorial video yesterday done by 3 Irish frends/colleagues of mine - Peter Cox, Roger Overall and Neil McShane . It was videoed recently during a trip around County Kerry in Ireland. It was nice to see how other landscape photographers go about their trade. Anyone into landscape photography would find it both enjoyable and informative.

Here's a link to the video http://www.circleofconfusion.ie/?p=538

Truth in advertising: it costs 9.95 EUR, Paypal only (?).

Aw sugar Ya. I forgot to mention it cost a tenner. I payed with paypal but not through my paypal account. I think the guys just use it as a credit card payment method as it's cheaper for them. I know I do it on my site for selling prints.

Have to check out the trailer later. Paypal takes a big cut, but they seem to be the only viable alternative in EU for online CC payments for SOHO and small businesses. Another issue with them is that it's not clear that you can pay with Paypal without becoming a customer - they push membership at every opportunity, but last time I checked you can pay without joining.

Ya I know some people still associate it with the need to have a Paypal account but you definitely don't need an account here to use it. I think in countries where there may be security issues you need an account. I know someone recently was buying some copies of my book and they didn't have the 2 options. On my site I almost ram it down peoples throat that you don't need an account in the payment section.

It's not that it's the only option here. It's just that you have to pay quite a bit to credit card payment providers in set up and annual fees. The fee charged on each item sold is less though. I'm not quite there yet.....by a long stretch that it would become a cheaper option than paypal.
