Woken up this morning to find 4 sales , all reasonably good prices, have appeared. Thank you Alamy.

Thank You Alamy.

Thanks for the link Pearl - one of mine in there as well. Martin

I used fixation a couple of years ago to do some repairs - can't fault them, and would certainly recommend them to others. Martin

I echo the sentiments of others about the lack of zooms - they've fallen flat after a really good run of months, which perhaps makes it more noticeable. Martin www.windmillskies.com

Me too. I've been trying on and off for a couple of hours - getting the red upload failed message. Martin www.windillskies.com

Long way to go on the positive reviews front, but can't argue against 100% royalties. Even with my drop in the ocean sized portfolio I get regular zooms and sales. What reading others posts has done is made me really think about the image and the key wording behind it-so yes there's an element of learning from others mistakes, but isn't that what forums are for as well? martin

SShep - Thanks for finding the train tickets again - that's twice in 6 weeks that this image has been used in The Guardian. Martin

Too right it's a lot of work - but so rewarding (and I don't have as many images as many others). As to whether images should be deleted I'm mindful to leave them at the moment. Martin www.windmillskies.com

Thanks for spotting this one. Martin www.windmillskies.com

Much the same - plenty of zooms, but not much in the way of sales - a couple of low prices. At least with my still small collection things get noticed in the 60+million so I must be doing something right. Martin

Thanks for all the replies, lots to go on. I was thinking about a 700 last night, but the 300 is another to consider. I need to go back and have a look at the 7200 again - lots to think about. Thanks again for taking the time to respond. Martin

Morning all I have a dilemma, my D200 body is on its way out! I have 2 good lenses a 14-24f4 Dx and a 24-120f4 Fx - and a limited budget with which to play with. Whilst I'd love the latest D500 or 750, I have at the present moment to be realistic about what to get. I shoot mainly landscapes, architecture and want to retain a walkabout ability. I don't really need high ISO, video or rapid fire FPS. I've been looking at the 610 and 7200 but I remain unconvinced by the build quality - the joys of having a mag alloy body for so many years! I've thought about selling the 14-24 and switching to FF completely. What would people suggest? Are the 610 and 7200 better built than I think. Thanks for any thoughts, got the outlaws coming in 20 mins- no idea if I'll get chance to look again before this evening. Martin

Thanks Lisa, will look at these options. Martin www.windmillskies.com

Hi All May be I'm being simple - but how do you manage to trace an image, other than through pot luck? I don't as yet have a big collection, and regularly get zooms which don't translate into sales - I know that this isn't always the case, but thought I'd try to search for the images that I know haven't had recognised sales. I once found a thumbnail sized image of mine in a well known, now defunct Sunday paper, and chased them successfully, but it was just luck that I saw it. Any help always appreciated.
