New Photos from Florida

Monday, March 30th, 2009

So it’s been a little while since I posted on my blog. I’ve got a lot going on and unfortunately this has taken a back seat. But now I’ve got something cool to post. I just got back from a spring break trip to Bonita Springs Florida and brought my Canon 20D along to take some photos. Hope you Enjoy!

Comparing Stock Photography Websites

Saturday, December 13th, 2008

ShutterStock.com

View my photos on ShutterStock.com

Advantages:

  • Very popular stock photo website.
  • Easy bulk upload (http, java tool, or ftp).
  • No Limit to number of photos to be reviewed at once.
  • Photos reviewed in average 48 hours (in my experience).
  • Possibility to earn $.25+ on photos. If you’ve earned $500, you start to earn $.33 per photo, $3000 = $.36 per photo, $10,000 = $.38 per photo.
  • Many more downloads than iStockPhoto.com and CrestockPhoto.com.

Disadvantages:

  • Can not set price of photo.
  • Starts out at a low $.25 per photo.
