Hi,
Someone in another thread flicked a Switch in my head yesterday when mentioning Pictures of airliners as stock.
Vectors etc aren't my Thing, but i do photograph Commercial plane OFTEN! :D
Is there a market for These sorts of Images in the Editorial stock world (SS and iS)??
Searching a few agencies there doesn't seem to be many Pictures around - is it because People don't offer These types of Picture often? Or is it simply because there's no market for them?
Thanks for reading 8)

You mean with the brands still there, is that what you're saying?
88,000 editorial airplane shots on SS out of 200,000+ total. I would say there's a lot around and yes, airplane photos sell but competition is incredibly high.

Thats right, with brands and everything still there (limiting them to Editorial only).
I'm fairly niffty with PS, but removing Branding is something i've not managed to make a good Job of so far.

If it's not editorial, then you have to remove a lot more than the brand names or logos. You would have to remove the "N" numbers or aircraft ID numbers on wings, tail and fuselage. And, you never know, they might consider the actual design proprietary.

Just submit as editorial - keep ppst processing to a monimum for stock , your only getting pennies
I gather you enjoy shooting planes. If so keep doing it for the joy of it and whatever you can sell and make a few bucks consider it as a bonus

What noodle said. Totally true!
I could probably double that 88000 figure if I spent enough time going through the archives! ;D

The funny thing is that you make many more pennies if you make them look the best. Kind of backwards thinking...

I have a few airplane shots on DT, making a few cents off them here and there
