John Mitchell Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 15 hours ago, Doc said: very slow here too; probably below half the sales I would have expected by this time in a normal April - probably doesn't help that many of my images are travel-related  Kumar  Things have picked up a bit for me sales-wise. Still slow, though, and zooms are minimal. International travel images are definitely going to take a big hit. I was thinking today that some of the restaurants and stores that I've photographed in Vancouver probably will no longer be around when businesses finally do reopen. I'm already seeing empty spaces and "for lease" signs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020  Hit the bottom here. Don't worry I can see you and you don't have much further to fall now. Just don't land on top of me please.  Allan  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacecadet Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Views and zooms down a third and no sales yet this month, although that's probably a timelag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobD Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) only 1 small sale so far, zooms at 4 are the worse since 2009 when I had far fewer images. This after having 3 record months for zooms. Sales at the other place are normal. Edited April 18, 2020 by BobD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacecadet Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 BTW, folks, I'm giving "haha" rather than just "like" to posts from now on. I figure we need the larfs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Rooney Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 If you have buyer friends who are looking for snaps of empty streets in Liverpool, please send them this way. At the moment, I'm glad that I'm not a normal person with a normal life that includes family and friends and social activities.  The Germans bought one of my Galway snaps this morning. Dunk a Shane.  It's windy up here on this hill. Think I'll just move a bit . . . oops! 😦   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Rooney Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Seriously, I once almost fell into the Grand Canyon. It was first light, very early, and IÂ decided to take a picture of myself. I set up a camera on a tripod, clicked the timer, and . . . tripped on my way to the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
