My best selling images on micro are my oldest - 2.5 year old so far. And it's nature, not business people

And they stay my best selling images, especially on Shutter. Sometimes one of them is getting to weekly Top 50.

Thank you chumley, but let me be surprized:
have tou in the past years done 1500$ per image , total of about 1.800.000 $ in five years time?
Where I was sleeping? looking in my Outlook emails I have found a letter from Alamy of about ten years ago, so I remember I was lookin for at this time, but not following that path. Maybe I have loose my train, now? In november will be one year I am part time working for MS, but at now only a dozen of images are decent selling rate, over an average two hundred. I know I will work better focused on, but I have not too much time to invest. A prevision of the Return of investment time shall be an incentive to work more focused
