Action Sports International is the outfit that took pictures at the marathon.
They want $35 for a single digital download at 1024x1536 resolution (barely more than laptop screen resolution and not good for enlarging), or $80 for all of them. In this age of inexpensive 10MP cameras, this is pitiful!
For the money, you get a limited license to use the jpg (no RAW):
This license allows you to make prints from this file, and to use the image for any other personal use, but does not grant any copyright to the image.
Sounds a bit restrictive: I'm not even sure you can put it up on your own website or blog.
A 10 x 16 print is $55.
They took 3 snaps of me:
UPDATE: In the interests of full disclosure, having said all that, I went ahead and ordered the electronic download of the 2nd picture. Apparently, 1024x1536 is what they use for printing. I'll see if it stands enlargement...
