On a more serious note:There are not really nearly a million pictures of sliced tomatoes at Shutterstock. If you sort by "Fresh Content" you will see that the vast majority of these pictures are not pictures of sliced tomatoes, but rather some pictures that contain one more more tomatoes or some dish that contains tomatoes and a slice of some sort.For example a slice of pizza with tomato sauce.The search engine does a very good job, though, to mainly show real sliced tomato pictures first, if you sort by Popular.You get the same picture at Adobe.So perhaps only 10,000 or maybe 20,000 or 30,000 are actually pictures of sliced tomatoes. You may argue that that is still more than enough. And sure, it is enough that a new picture really has to be very good in order to have a chance to sell and even then it may very likely be buried under all the other good pictures.I would say, though, that it is not as easy as it sounds to create an appealing picture of sliced tomatoes, as it is not so easy to get really clean cuts.You kind of proofed this yourself with your own attempt (if the single picture at the bottom of your post is yours), because if you are honest, you will have to agree that it cannot really compete with most of the pictures in your screenshot.
