1 year.  I've gotten quite a bit out of it for the small amount of time I've invested.  My business is getting too busy for my hobbies, so this year I think I should look at shooting stock seriously and block off at least a week per month to devote to it.

Since Sept 25, this year.

I am really enthusiastic about the business and plan to dedicate several months next year to creating a super portfolio and, potentially, to switch to full time :-)

Since July 2007... I learned more about photography in this period than any other since I started whit my first Nikon F75 in 2003. Bizare to say that rejections are helpful.

June 2005 and although I enjoy it at times more often than not I find it boring.

Hey LEAF! We started at the same time! May 2004!  Grin
I've been a full time photog now since August 2006 thanks to Microstock which is roughly 70% of my income.

Almost 2 years.  I think I started in IS in January (or February?) 2006, soon after I joined DT, CanStockPhoto and StockXpert.

Adelaide
