DJ Myford Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Well I have had two zooms, but they rarely convert, and even if they did in this case it would probably be either one or the other, not both. Still, misplaced optimism springs eternal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Standfast Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I'm not worried about the beginning of July. I sold a picture of the PWC building in Bristol on the 1st, so alamy was still open for business. And maybe this thread was quiet because of talk of sRGB vs aRGB not to mention Liverpool....both far more engaging than sales at the beginning of the month.

Brizbee Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Four sales on Friday 5th, all to the same buyer, all for the same low to mid $$. Marketing Package use, digital marketing communications only, excluding advertising, repeat use within license. Of the four, this is the one I am most pleased with. P.S. DJ, all four images were zoomed about 2 to 3 months ago. It may take a while but those zooms we get do turn into sales eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it did why was the thread not started earlier? This is not a mandatory exercise, it is purely on a voluntary basis. As I said before, due to copycat danger, I carefully choose which sale I want to show. In fact, I had one today taken on top of Mount Roraima in Venezuela. Not impossible to copy but unlikely. I will share it later when I have reliable internet connection. I am currently in Polynesia where reception is intermittent. Another reason for not posting earlier.

Michael Ventura Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I have had a few sales this July but they were of images that I don’t post here. Here, in the U.S., the 4th was a major holiday and most people took off work on Friday too. So probably not so many U.S. sales last week. Hope things will pick up this week!

Marianne Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 As Michael said, the 4th is a big US holiday. Many in the US took the entire week off - or at least Wednesday-Sunday - so I wouldn't fret. And not everyone posts their sales here. To be honest, since I don't sell here that frequently, I might go a week or more without checking my sales or posting on the forum even if I have one. Hopefully, there will be a bunch of posts Monday - just like the end of the month rush. In summer a lot of people are on vacation too - buyers and Alamy photogs.

TABan Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Sold twice and it looks like for the same publication or sister publications. One 2 page spread, $$$, one full page mid $$. We love Tammy around here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use these as a reference to the kinds of photos that do sell, rather than the specifics of what sold. It's just to try and get my head in the space for thinking about what to shoot when out and about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
