I did say the images would be classified as EDITORIAL and I don't seem to remember claiming or even suggesting I was a commercial photographer. I shot motorsport I sell some images to competitors I also from time to time submit images to editors of magazines with the hope of getting published and paid if that means I'm a commercial photographer.
I am more than willing to pay the administrative costs of shooting the event but tell me would $540 be a fair charge for the administrative costs? (Rhetorical)
