This is a picture of the former teaser, before we up-loaed the latest up-dated list of members.
BySylvie FodorFor the first time since CEPIC's foundation, the number of picture agencies represented has decreased.
Although one additional European national association, SAPHIR from France, has joined us this year and the number of Affiliates has remained stable, CEPIC now claims not over a thousand but less than 900 picture sources.
The dramatic loss clearly shows how our industry has been affected by the latest economic crisis, coupled with deep structural changes.
Happy September to you all!
I hope that all of you have had a wonderful summer and are now looking forward to getting back to work and our industry’s busy months of September, October and November. Read more

Stephen is the acknowledged master of high speed photography and developed many of the techniques nearly 40 years ago which made it possible to capture in both single images and multiple exposures creatures in motion, from bees and birds in flight and leaping grasshoppers to diving frogs.
His work is very international in emphasis, with many familiar British and European species plus a range of more exotic creatures from Africa, Asia and the Americas. Stephen has published many books, including titles on British habitats, high speed photography, flight, rainforests and most recently spiders. He lives in Sussex and many of his images are taken in the beautiful woodland and farmland of the Sussex Weald.
