Hi
I would be interested too, since all of my aerial photos, fall under the heading of "nature".
Thanks Smiling Jack

Nature is a tough one because you run into that segment of the photography world that typically is very experienced, does it out of love, and usually has great equipment: the birders (who also tend to get a lot of great nature/wildlife shots while out birding).  I don't know of any specialized sites for the general photographer, though I do know a few guys that have pooled their resources and put together a fine art/stock site devoted to nature in general with a large bird section.  Finding some people that share a common interest (I'm sure that there are a ton), that would like to get their work out their somehow and getting together your own website might be a good way to go.  I recently pointed a buddy of mine on Flickr towards photoshelter with the same predicament, pretty good bird/nature photographer.  I can show you an example of the group of guys' site that I'm talking about if you pm me.  I'm sure that there is a way that a 3rd party could host the site and deal with any printing/downloading/financial interests.

Smiling Jack - I'd love to see some of your aerial work.  I always whip out my camera when I fly (commercially) and I get nice clear skies, and I've got the PPing down to where I think that they look pretty darn good, not good enough technically to ever get accepted by a regular micro agency (if anybody has the PS skills to turn a 30,000 ft shot into a stock worthy shot, technically at least, wow, my hats off to you), but if there is any group of my photos that I just set to slideshow and enjoy, these are the ones.

I've got a ton more to process, but they take so long that I only work on one when I'm really up to it.  I think that the evolution of PPing is definitely noticeable, maybe I'll do a Mize-like tutorial (sans the video) someday on my workflow and techniques for them.  I'm sure some of the pro level guys here would find the PPing to be nothing special, but for the PS amateurs and learners, commercial aerials are IMO the most challenging type of shot and they are really where I learned and became comfortable with the different modes (RGB, CMYK, LAB) in PS, especially LAB, and where I really tuned and honed my eyes for color.

Hi
Maybe i should have said my aerial photos would fall under the heading of Landscape. They are mostly of Montana and Africa.

Waldo4: mine were all taken from small aircraft at 500 to 10,000 AGL. I also have some photos of vintage and private aircraft. I have a few files at BigStock, DT and Shutterstock under JackA. As you know I am Newbie to microstock feeling my way to see if there is a market for the 3000+ slides I have collected over the yrs. Looking for any help you guys feel you want to give.
Thanks Smiling Jack

Sounds good to me!  My fella is in the RAF and I'm just itching to get a chance to shoot all the military planes... I think I have a few Army training Gazelle heli's in my portfolio, but that's about it.  Certain agencies rejected them because the paint scheme is apparently a trademark.  No point in arguing that the navy blue is the "standard" colour and the yellow cap is to let people know they're not qualified!

That's funny, because the Warrant Officer at his last training posting gave me permission to photograph pretty much anything I want!  Shame he left a week later!

Thanks everybody for the help.
Snurder: The list helped in that I tell what other aerial photographers have out there for stock.
Waldo4- I have been a CFI and Com.Pilot for over 60yrs. Right now my main buss. is making aerial mosaics(maps) for small land developers and farmers in PhotoShop. This buss. is kinda up and down so I was looking to microstock(or midstock) to fill in the gaps.
Thanks again Smiling Jack
