I hope you do not mind me contacting you but in searching for images of thebull trout I found an image on your photostream which I would be really interested in using for ARKive, if you would like to become involved.
ARKive - www.arkive.org - is a unique conservation initiative.
Films, photographs and audio recordings of the world’s animals, plants and fungi are being gathered into one centralised digital library. To date we have created digital multi-media profiles for some 5000+ species, digitising and storing more than 40,000 still images and over 60 hours of moving footage. These important audio-visual records are being preserved and maintained for the benefit of future generations and are being made available via the ARKive website.
I can send you some documentation that will tell you a lot more about the ARKive project. However, in summary:
• It is ARKive's current primary aim to compile audio-visual records for the 17,000-plus species currently threatened with extinction, according to the World Conservation Union's (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species.
• We are looking for media (moving footage, still images, audio) to depict each species' life history as comprehensively as possible. In order for us to achieve this aim we need help from as wide a variety of donors as possible and would like to be able to add you to our list of contributors.
• The ARKive website acts as a showcase for image providers, displaying copyright and contact details with every image and links to each media donor's own web activities.
See examples of species which have been ARKived at www.arkive.org.
Please let me know if you would like to contribute to ARKive or if you have any queries on katrina.armour@wildscreen.org.uk.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Best wishes,
Kaz Armour
