How much to sell my photographs for?

A coworker located in the US liked some of my photos and asked me to price 2-3 for him.

Mind, I will not be selling prints, just a digital file for a single use (I do trust him) - I'm located in Europe so sending a print over to the US would be way too expensive.

So, for the 16x20 ready files, - how much do you think I should charge for my photos?

(Ignore the fact that they guy is my cooworker).

Thanks!

@ fohotoace

I assume you have a digital print in mind, which is not a kind of printing my coworker has in mind. In other words, he's not going to run into a local photo shop to get the prints out but will have it done properly. I'm sure the price of offset printing is about the same in the US and in Europe, so charging him 500% on top is probably a bad idea.

It's not just a plain photo, is an extensive digital manipulation of a photo, so doesn't quite compare with stock photos.

    Well, you can buy full resolution files for printing off a stock photography site like istockphoto for around £7/€9/$10 to print as many times as you want or use as you wish, so . . . I'd say use that as a guide.
