Hi Betty I dont know, I used to be extremely active in the forums here a while ago, than I got bored... I used to be very active in social media, google+ and later on Facebook Lately I am just worried about taking pictures and uploading After reaching 6000 images here I started uploading in another agency, no, not Darrel's. And my firstan RF agency where I have 12000 images, constantly selling, but much lower prices of course, Thanks for being so kind

I see Arletta, as I said, I am having one or two sales per month, certainly better than no sales last year. My CTR didnt change much since the begining, I have some zooms and views (54 zooms for the last 12 months to be precise). None of my sales have been zoomed. The one thing did changed was that I have now some images with high discoverability, I suspect this changed my ranking, this could be an explanation The other, as John Mitchel suggested is that the sales changed my ranking, Well, than it took a long time, even after my first sale last year. Anyway, I am conte

This will definitely sound weird, but... I uploaded a lot of images and had only one sale. Than Alamy changed its interface and I realized all my images had poor discoverability. I was trying to use very relevant, but few keywords to increase my CTR. Well, I decided to add a lot of keywords to some images so get the status fully discoverable I didn't spam, they are keywords related to the images, but some a bit generic like picturesque, horizontal, traditional, etc. And the sales came, is not crazy number, but one or two per month. Now the crazy part, so far

None of my sales have zooms...

I thought any images with a logo or the name of the hotel one would have to say that you dont have the property rights and would be sold as editorial, isnt that the case?

Any basic DSLR will have enough quality for Alamy I suggest Canon Rebel line If cant afford a brand new, buy a second hand one

Hi Keiko Welcome to Alamy

Welcome to the forum Bert

The human eye has a lot more dynamic range than your camera's sensor. When your eye can see details in both highlights and shadows, I want my shots to also show those details rather than details in the mid-tones along with complete white and complete black. HDR brings those texture details out in both cases on the same resulting image, when the difference in exposure between dark and light goes beyond the scope of a standard RAW file. That's when HDR is needed and is effective, so your image represents what the eye actually saw at the time. That doesn't mean you can't have shadows and highligh

Candomblé is a religion of the afroamerican culture in Brazil, "figa" is part of its traditions as "macumba".

My thoughts precisely
