Sally Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I thought I had mostly deleted abstract background type images from very early uploads, before I really knew what was likely to sell, but just sold this one. Only $5 of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvallee Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I shouldn't be pleased about this license (because of low $ plus terms) but I am because it's an insect!

I also do a lot of wildlife photography, and my experience is that insect photos sell well, especially butterflies, but other wildlife particularly birds rarely sell. I think there are so many great bird photographers in the UK that it's very hard to compete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also do a lot of wildlife photography, and my experience is that insect photos sell well, especially butterflies, but other wildlife particularly birds rarely sell. I think there are so many great bird photographers in the UK that it's very hard to compete. Yes interesting. Birds used to be my number one selling subject when I was heavily into it. Birds from all over the world, I did many trips abroad just for bird photography. For some reason, these have dried up. Buyers might prefer more recent shots. Perhaps I was a bit pessimistic. I just checked my Inverts and Insects sales so far (since 2003): 65 . I find that ants seem to sell the best. Green ants, leaf-cutter ants. Also butterflies, spiders. Lately I have been mainly shooting landscapes and made an effort to also photograph people. Side note: I see you're from Hampshire. I used to live near Haslemere before moving to Australia.

VbFolly Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I have seen some of your amazing bird photos in the images sold thread, Gen. It's a shame if your sales of exotic birds are drying up. It shouldn't really matter when they were shot, but I guess they just drop down the searches a bit as they get older. I have also tried to diversify a bit more to improve sales. It's working to some extent - I'm getting more sales, but as my photos are mainly in the UK, the prices are often very low. I think I need to travel more. I know Haslemere - it's only about half an hour away from me. Gillian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 (edited) This just licensed for a princely mid $ to a UK magazine (inside or cover) with a circulation of 500K. At least I didn't have to venture farther than my own backyard to photograph it. Edited August 24, 2019 by John Mitchell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
