I remember back in the late 70s and 80s those cheap Diana cameras became very popular for the art crowd. The whole Carmel group had their Diana Photo books out. I never really bought into it but many did.. oh and some Diana cameras used 120 film. Sort of like huge megapixel terrible lens cameras.... oh sorry I mean phones of today. I must be getting really old because things are beginning to repeat. I seem to remember one of the big names offering a workshop on using them. Don

I've been struggling with my own key-wording. I have begun keywording very tightly trying to minimize showing in searches that my images have no place or very little relevance. Is this a good method to use? I look over the stats and keep trying to adjust. Seems this is an art in itself.

First sale was about 1 year with about 150 images. In fact I'd actually given up the stock idea when I by chance I checked and there was a sale!! I was amazed. Then another and then another. IMO don't get discouraged or too impatient just keep on working. Hope that helps.

Congratulations Maria!! It is exciting to get a sale here. I was over the moon as well when I saw a sale. Hope we all get loads more sales here. Very nice image too!! Don
