Well, the deadline to send everything in is tomorrow. I get this email below today (!) and I don't have a single image as large as 30 MB!! That's huge..
That's the end of that then. That's the first I heard of the size of images required, with tomorrow being the deadline there is no way that either RobZ nor Kilty nor any other customers or galleries who have my work, nor I for that matter could arrange a pro fotographer who has cameras suitable for such large images.
It's obvious more suitable for London artists who can take smallish stuff to their photographer Matthew. Hohum... that's the way it goes sometimes.

Hello Gisela,
Apologies for the delay in my response, as i have been rextremely tied up with work before i was due to travel to India.
Regarding images, the ones you sent before were for the references and they are not high resolution enough to be used in the book.
to be included in the book, We would need extremely high resolution not less than 300 dpi and in tiff format preferably on a CD or via yousendit
Each image should not be less than 30 MB, if you decide to send it by yousendit.com please send it to ...
We have decide to include 100 makers, but as you know we are on a strict deadline because of our publishers, so if we don;t receive things in time from the makers we would have to drop them.
I understand your work is very heavy to carry to Matthew, so I think your penguin work will be interesting to feature.
Please send few images which you would be happy to get it featured, we will then select out of that,
We will need 10 - 15 words information about the piece to be featured.
such as name (if any), material (if reqd), size, date made or description of the piece in 8 - 10 words
I look forward to hearing from you
