Arizona Highways is primarily a travel maga zine devoted to Arizona and areas immediately adjoining the state . In a two page specifications outline , the editor spells out exactly what types of articles they use as well as what kind they do not use . In the area of photographs , the instruc tions are detailed :
" The color reproductions in Arizona Highways are mainly made from 4x5 transparencies or larger
. . . We have , on occasion , used transparencies as small as 2 / 4x2 / 4 " but only on very rare occasions when the subject is unique do we use 35mm or color prints .
" Black and white material submitted should be 8x10 " glossy prints , which are usually kept on file until used .
" Arizona Highways purchases only first pub lication rights to material used . The transparency or black and white is returned , undamaged , after use . We do not have a staff photographer . All photographs used in our publication are pur both chased for our use only , from free lancers professional and amateur . We pay from $ 20 to $ 60 for transparencies and from $ 5 to $ 10 for black and whites , according to the size used .
There is a unique aspect to sales of color to Arizona Highways because there is a secondary income possibility that accrues to the photog rapher . The publisher duplicates the color shots used in the magazine in color slide form for sale to readers of the magazine .
" Color Classics mounted slides are made from all transparencies reproduced in our pages . These Color Classic slides are sold mainly through the readership of our publication . The photographer receives a 2 ¢ royalty on each slide sold . "
Identification is important to readers
Argosy magazine is a publication dealing in fiction and fact , mainly built around adventure type material . With more than a million and a quarter circulation , it is a prestige market whose interests are broad . " As basic story categories , we stress unusual adventures and / or situations , and unusual or new approaches to sports . These sub ject areas are to be understood in broad terms , but should lean strongly to personal experience : Identification is important to the Argosy reader .
" Almost anything goes in sports and adventure , so long as the idea isn't old hat . Generally speak ing , we discourage picture stories that tend to be inbumanitarian , repulsive or cruel . Bullfighting ( Spanish style ) , cockfighting and the like are out . New sports and adventures , or a novel approach to familiar ones , are especially sought - after .
Archeology , exploration and travel frequently provide jumping - off points for a good photo feature . And , we are never averse to including attractive girls in our features , providing their presence bears a legitimate relation to the story line . Bonafide treasure stories , substantiated by documentation , have always been popular .
" Photographers should feel free to use their imaginations as well as their technical skills in covering - or creating interesting sports or adventure situations . We welcome discussions on possible story assignments , provided they are relatively specific . The time - tested method to break into photo assignments has been acceptance of successful speculation or approval picture stories .
" Color or black - and - white action photography may be mailed or brought in for examination . Freelancers and photo agents are invited to submit tearsheets or samples of their work . Each Wednes- day is set aside for interviews and advisement on prospective assignments . "
The editors of Maryknoll Magazine have gone to great lengths to prepare a guide sheet for pro spective contributors . It is a slickly printed , 8 page two - color folder illustrated with a number of photos that are typical of the kinds they use . It presents very detailed instructions as to the style of photography sought and explains the areas of interest , the procedures for submission and a schedule of rates paid . To quote a specific in struction , " The style of photography in the monthly Maryknoll magazine can best be described as intimate . Since the magazine is of digest for mat , it is necessary that it tell its story with many dramatic close - ups . This is true for both color and black and white . The editors prefer to have a great selection of pictures to choose from . Hence , those interested in taking pictures for Maryknoll should cover a story completely and bracket their exposures to insure high color quality . "
