 | February started really well on Shutterstock with three enhanced license downloads in the first 3 days of the month,but then it slowed up… Overall,though,the month was pretty much on par with recent months with total earnings of $1120. I worked hard in the early part of the month to get as many [...] OK,only vaguely related to stock photography –although there are photos on the site! I finally put the finishing pieces on my wife’s jewelry site today. She makes silver wire wrapped pendants and necklaces/earrings and my job was to create a site with some good photographs,a shopping cart and an ability to browse [...] I’ve been a bit lazy this last week… I did some images of pancakes –this is a tradition on Shrove Tuesday in the UK,but it was this past week in the US: Pancake in pan Pancake on plate Then I found some old images of plants that have been planted at [...] Keeping up with the New Year’s Resolution by posting yet another set of images taken in the past week. I’ve focused on macro and still life type images this week:The first one is a simple image of nail trimmers or cutters and the finger nails themselves on the edge of a sink. I had [...] This short article covers a photographic isolation – setting your subject against a pure white background to make it easy to change the background or add the subject to a different composition. It is similar to blue (or green) screening but is sometimes easier to achieve without any specially colored backgrounds or cloths. A typical [...] I have around 200 images from my Kauai trip that are now online (although a lot of them without the critical keyword “Kauai”as a result of the Lightroom keyword export bug explored in this post!),and so rather than keep posting ones from that trip,here are some new images taken this week. The [...] Alamy is one of the sites I upload to,and I’ve been bemused for a time when I’m adding some main keywords that major keywords seem to be missing. My recent trip to Kauai brought this home as the keyword “kauai”was missing on the uploaded files. At first I thought I had forgotten to [...] Much of the past week has been occupied with processing my images from Hawaii. All told,I have around 1500,but 250 of those were the timelapse movie images that I discussed a few days ago. Amazing how long it takes to review and then process all those images as I always work in Raw [...] As mentioned in a previous post,I’m still working through my 1400 images from a recent trip to Oahu and Kauai in the Hawaiian Islands. One of my experiments this time was a timelapse movie that I will upload to a few stock video sites. The steps are not that complex if you haven’t done [...] A new year starts in a pretty reasonable fashion with total earnings of around $1150. It isn’t just good enough to keep me on track for my 2012 target of $18000,but there are still plenty of months and plenty of images to upload between now and the end of the year! I added around [...] |
