It was a distributor sale. The distributor takes their cut and then Alamy gets 60% of what is left. Then we get a wee bit. Sad but sometimes worth it for a distributor who pays a lot. Paulette

I did all this a couple of years ago but my memory is not great so I'll just answer what I'm sure of. Yes, to Lightroom Classic. I was backing up my catalog to the external hard drive that also has my images. I used my last backup when the new Lightroom Classic asked (I think) for the catalog. I wish I could remember exactly how it went but I didn't find it difficult. Yes you can have Lightroom Classic on two computers. Someone more knowledgable will chime in, I'm sure. As you can tell, I am not an expert and I had no problems. Paulette

I do suggest putting most important words in both the caption and as supertags. It can help the placement of your image. I congratulate you on getting those darn cats to hold still! I would use different words than you have in many cases. I don't know what you mean by "satup". I'd say simple and common expressions such as lying down or sitting, side view or front view. It looks like you have group tagged some images so kittens is in tag but not in image. Check that each image has very accurate tags that don't contradict each other. Good luck. Paulette

So you will be the one to take a really good photo of Strawberry Fields. Paulette

Good news that you are in that fabulous world again. Paulette

Lovely. Paulette

Very exciting images, Sally. Paulette

Love those gravestones. Paulette

Maybe it freshens toxic air???? 😃 Paulette

I was amazed to see the "same" birds in India that I saw in Africa. Good at flying. Pigeons? Kind of surprising that they have populated the world. .. at least in the cities. Paulette

I very much appreciate what you offer to the Forum in the way of advice. You helped me enormously and I thank you for that. Please leave the monitoring of the Forum to Alamy. You are too harsh for me. It's a friendly place and I like it like that. Paulette

I got curious because I see these guys every day. Lots of information here... https://www.nycgovparks.org/parks/pigeon-paradise/highlights. Definitely a Rock Dove. I am surprised to learn that the lovely Mourning Doves are Pigeons too. Paulette

I differ. Tremors can severely affect photography. I love hearing about the successful procedure. Go Jeff! And keep us in the loop, please. We care. Paulette

They made our visit a party. A lot of fun. That young girl pulled me in to their song and dance and she thought my attempts were pretty funny. Paulette

I love this.. Paulette
