subjectSea Otter photo for CA State Park brochure
We would like to request permission to use one of your sea otter
photos that we found on the Flickr website ( www.flickr.com/photos/mikebaird/4665780216/in/photostream/ ). We are creating a new brochure for Julia Pfeiffer Burns State
Park that will be given to park visitors free of charge. One of the
photos that we wish to show visitors depicts the otter. Your photo is
the best by far and would work well in our educational brochure.
Please contact me if you would be willing to allow us to use your
image. Because we have limited funds for production we can only offer
photo credit. We would need a signed release as well. I hope to hear
from you! Tad Perez, Graphic Designer III, California State Parks,
