I Need Help Finding PhotosPremium Member
Posted By: W.M.M.A. on 7/24/2006 12:55 PM (CST) 1872 Points
We need some big time help here.
We need photos of big oil rigs and offshore oil/gas production related photographs.

Please---do not send me a list off photo websites that we can get ourselves. I need specific URL's that have "Offshore Oil and Gas Rigs...ships that pull offshore oil and gas rigs...close ups, long shots...fabrication and construction of rigs and platforms."

Nothing else. The profs that do the best...get the big points.

On your mark, get set...GO.

Oh, I need em' yesterday.

Thank you.

Hi Randall,

I hope you're having a great day!

This should get you started but I'll come back with more. Let me know how this works. Remember our only real problem in life is our failure to be "MORE Creative" than we’ve ever been. If you “Invent” your opportunity YOU WILL most definitely create your future. Just know that I'm here for you if you need my help. Is there anything else I can do for you?

Your Servant, Deremiah, *CPE (Customer Passion Evangelist)

Not exactly what I was seeking...but, nice try. I always appreciate the amount of work you put into something. I'm seeking photographers who specialize in offshore...that have a portfolio that I can buy...so, I can make a brochure for my client.

Thanks D

We want to know where we can find good, offshore photography. My client builds the BIG STUFF. During their growing years, no one stopped to say...."Hey, shouldn't we be taking picture?"

Okay Randall,

(here you go because you've been so good to me)

Here's another guy named Peter Robey. You can check his website out and even contact him if you'd like.

http://www.miningphoto.com/

This guy is Lance Michaels on Dreams time but no individual website is listed and he doesn't seem to have a portfolio that supports the specific work but I'll include him anyway.

I have the equipment, the time and the inclination to help you get EXACTLY what you need - by the end of the week.

Samples of work from helicpters over 23 years are here: http://www.photographersdirect.com/kevinpalmer and I have a good network of supply chain provision for you.

I would get as many photos as you need (up to 300) by the end of next week for a total of $3,0000 US plus $2,500 in travel.

Hey Randall, (You're a great man with much vision)


Here's another Houston photographer who has one picture on his sight but may have more in his portfolio. His name is Miguel Ledezma

http://www.miguelaledezma.com/work_page.html

His contact info is on this page.
http://www.miguelaledezma.com/contact_page.html


Jackson Hill is another photographer...go to his industrial offshore photos here. He has flash so you have to go through main home web page (sorry)
http://www.southernlights.com/home.html

this is where you can reach his reps to talk to someone personally

Adobe Stock Photos is a new service that is included in your Adobe applications. You can access Adobe Stock Photos through the Adobe Bridge file browser in Adobe Creative Suite 2, Production Studio, Photoshop CS2, Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, GoLive CS2, After Effects 7.0, Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 , Adobe Audition 2.0, and Encore DVD 2.0 software.

The Adobe Stock Images I found in less than 2 minutes and 2 seconds:
* 152 images w/key words 'oil rig'
* 200 images w/key word 'gas rig'

Your graphics department should be able to access the stock via one of the programs mentioned above.

Their stock images are professional but do come along with a hefty price tag. I know you will find what your looking for without thumbing about with all the other programs already mentioned.

Good Luck!

It takes a lot of cutting and pasting to give you links to actual photos. I've done so for the free pictures. For the rst, I've given you a link to the searh. Once search broght up over 500 images (to many to cut and paste for the points offered)

Free or Permmission based use:

http://www.sxc.hu/photo/539205 <-- must be credited to use

http://www.sxc.hu/photo/464816 <-- no restrictions, free to use

http://www.sxc.hu/photo/72725 <-- must be credited to use

Commercial or must be paid for selections:

Do me a small favor, click my affiliate link above each of the search links I'm about to give you. I may receive a few free photos or a buck or two I'll end up spending on phtos anyway. Thanx

Referal link: http://www.istockphoto.com/richardhertz2469
Here is a link to 66 picture in one search. Buy them at 1.00 to 10.00 each: http://www.istockphoto.com/file_search.php?action=file&text=offshore+oil+ga...

Here is a link to 16 images you can buy at $1 to $3 each:

http://www.dreamstime.com/search.php?do_action=search&searchmode=simple&sea...

Bigstockphoto: http://www.bigstockphoto.com/?refid=cG0fu5Qr2D and there are lots of photos here: http://www.bigstockphoto.com/search.php?photo_name=offshore+oil+gas+rig&x=1...

referal link: http://www.fotolia.com/partner/105899 Only five pictures here: http://www.fotolia.com/search.php?k=offshore+oil+gas+rig&search_type_conten...

Hope this helps you. I'm sure you'll find what you need out of these links I've provided you. (just in case, you might have to cut and past the entire link into your browser to bring up the search results).

Hi Randall. Slightly different take to the offerings here

If you go to this link http://www.oilrigdisasters.co.uk/ you'll find a whole list of photos of Oil Rigs in various states of construction and destruction.

The site is very easy to navigate with examples from various locations

Looks like you can contact the site owner for details about photos and use.

Another one that would require you contact the paper that published it is
