Everybody donates work for one reason or another.
My response was specifically regarding public parks, which have advertising budgets.
I assure you the printers, graphic designers, ad agencies, publications, etc. are not waiving their fees in lieu of karma points.
I personally have done thousands of dollars of business with state and national parks, and have also made thousands of dollars licensing photographs that I took inside public parks.
When I license a park photograph that , let's say, illustrates a magazine article, that particular park ( and to a lesser degree public parks in general) receives thousands of dollars of free advertising, and I make a few hundred dollars. I would argue that it is a win-win situation and not the one-sided affair that Mr. Cochran describes.
Even if you display a framed print and title it "Acadia National Park" you are advertising for that park.
So, if you are serious about profiting from your photography, examine your philanthropy guidelines very carefully.
