Sorry to trouble you. I'm about to photograph a dog's bollocks and the photo you have on your web page is just what I'm looking for. I'm emailing you to see if you're interested in selling me permission to use your image. I would be modifying the photo heavily (so heavily that it'll be hard to recognise it as your original photo - for example, like Andy Warhol did with his Marilyn Monroe images!) and using it commercially (although everything is just an idea at the moment so I don't know if I'll make any money from it!). I have a photo session set up for next week which will be costing me £50 (about $70) - I'd be happy to pay you that amount for the permission; could I take the liberty of asking if you could be tempted? I'm in the UK (I could pay using PayPal).
