Title: Just to introduce myself
Post by: Rasica on March 20, 2018, 09:46

Hello.
I'm here a newcomer, but I've been in stock waters for more than four years. I am currently looking for a place to try to sell my best works.
Probably the link will not work, but here more about me:

Hi Radisa,

Welcome. You have some impressive surrealist fine art images - beautiful stuff. I don't know if others would agree but those don't belong in microstock (just look at the prices you're charging and you're considering putting them out for sub downloads??!!). Look into specialist Midstock agencies.

I would recommend looking into Print on Demand agencies, as well as brick and mortar galleries that fit your style:

Best of luck

I prefer more high-quality, landscape photography, while these surreal works come in the order when I have the time and inspiration.
My exclusive works are on the RM page.
Thanks for the information and nice words...

Which specialized midstock agencies would recommend for my travel, lifestyle and landscape photos?

You're welcome. :)

I would recommend looking into:

- 4Corners (for travel)
- Addictive Stock for lifestyle (just wrote a detailed review of them on my blog, link below)
- Blend Images (lifestyle and travel)
- Robert Harding (for travel)
- Trevillion for lifestyle

Most of the above are exclusive, so it becomes tricky playing favourites if you do decide to sign up to more than one of them. It's more about whether they fit into your style and if you're happy with the royalty rates.

Then there's some more generic images which you can decide to put on micros, everywhere and RF.

Good luck
