been a photographer for a full 5 months and made 3 dollars from 3 photos, quite chuffed actually  1 sale from 3 photos on dreamtime  and 2 sales from 50 on rf123   16 on bigstockphoto no sales  71 stockphotomedia no sales  not made the grade yet for istock,shutterstock or fotofolia , as i have already spent nearly a grand sterling on camera and equipment , my next lens i hope will come from stock , as my next major purchase is to see big sis inLA next year, my biggest frustration is trying to get the 7out of 10 for shutterstock,  say they approve 4 out of 10 month, the next month  they reject them ,  glad i found this place at least i can target my efforts better
if you promise not to laugh   heres link to my  site        http://www.mrsite.co.uk/usersitesv24/Dazzphotography.com/wwwroot/index.htm

just been knocked back by istock, so have to resubmit in  im sure it said 180 days , hope ive improved enough by then. now shutterstock have taken over bigstock will that mean , thier criteria will tighten up

thanks for the info, i know its about finding my niche .  i live 15 floors up so with my trusty tripod  , i try to get good cityscape shots accross salford and manchester   with manchesters beatham tower being prominent  and i also carry my camera in my bag when going to work, (although you have to be careful getting DSLR out in downtown salford). do social street images sell? ive tried night cityscape work bulb exposure and it looks ok till you go to 100%  and i keep my eye out for the police helicopter. i would like to do night school course  but as a carer  i am on a 3 week rota  of 24 hour shifts,  isnt it pathetic when your really pleased you sold a photo for 36 cents but alas im addicted

Suljo, while we should all try to write properly, this should not be a place to put people down if they don't do it. If you have decided to call on someone for writing improperly, you should be certain that you write properly yourself.

Agreed, you can emit smoke signals and bonk your head with a stick, as long as it makes general sense, grammar school be damned.

Yes
you are AllRight. As all you see I am like 60/60% of us non native English speakers here but anyhow we are trying to articulate something useful.
I really try to articulate something useful like Pit from ending scene from Pulp Fiction, or like

I dont know why I was react but it was the first time to catch native English speaker with all this kind of (pravopisne nepismenosti)

^^^ Must admit it never fails to amaze me how well so many of you non-native English speakers make themselves understood on these forums (most usually with almost impeccable grammar/punctuation). Thus my exasperation with a fellow Englishman __ it must make it even more difficult for you guys.

 I shall  endeavour, in the future  ,  to make my posts easier to read and feel suitably chastised . would you believe i actually speak another language ?    Bei der Hochschule Bremen studiert   .I do tend towards a meandering narative  .  Very sorry

Things have really tightened up at IS. When I applied in Feb. 08 and was initially rejected (5 times), only had to wait a couple weeks to reapply, now it is 6 months.

daz314, I think you have some nice photos in your gallery and the love of photography shows. Especially like the straws which make a nice pattern and 3 apartment windows with plants. You seem to have a good eye for composition and capturing patterns. The Shutterstock forum Critique / Tips / Tricks is a great place to upload some samples to get input from experts before you apply again. Keep going!
