<pre>Hi everyone,

Its been a long time since I posted here, and I'm sure I've missed
loads, so I'll reintroduce myself briefly. I'm in Wales, and though
I'm longing to grow olives, my couple of attempts at growing them in
pots has failed when the weather turns bad. My main interest is in
ancient perfumery, and most of my activity on this group in the past
has been discussing the manufacture and availability of omphacion-
unripe olive oil, which was used extensively in classical perfumes.
I'm currently putting the finishing touches to a new book on early
perfume and I'd like to include a good photograph of olives on the
tree, and I wondered whether anyone here took photos that would be
suitable for publication. I'm happy to offer a complimentary copy of
the book or a fee for the use of the images, though I don't have a
commercial budget so I'm afraid I can't offer the sorts of rates that
the picture libraries charge.

Many thanks
Sally

Dear Sally,

I have a collection of olive photos taken in the Hunter Valley, along with
photos of processing, machinery, picking and the like. You are welcome to
use any of these in exchange for a mention as the copyright belongs to the
Hunter Olive Association.

I could either send you some by e-mail, or post you a CD ROM with
everything, whichever suits you best.

I don't think that this newsgroup allows attachments, so I can't send them
directly.

Regards,

Mike Wilson
Hunter Olive Association.

Well, I woke up this morning to a pile of really beautiful olive
photos waiting in my inbox. People here have been truly kind in
taking the time to send possible images and have expressed interest
in the history of olive oil in perfumery. I just wish I could use all
the images! I'm sure I'll have no trouble in finding a suitable image
from the ones I've been sent.
Thank you all so very much )
Once the book is out of the way I'll try to find some time to do an
article on ancient olive oil based perfumes and post it here.

Thats cos all the best people are interested in the same sorts of
things ;o). Seriously though, I've learnt lots on this list even
though I do flit in and out, and one day, when I've got time and
space, I'm going to have another go at groing olives, even if they
are little ones in pots.
