Popular Post Steve F Posted October 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2023 So I've hit a milestone, 5000 images up, only taken 8 years! Not sure I'd have done it if I knew how much work it would be. Kudos to everyone with much bigger collections! Also just passed $10k gross. Sales and gross are increasing each year so I remain enthusiastic, let's see how long it all lasts! Steve 4 1 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony ALS Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Well done Steve! I don't often reply to posts but I'm sure all of us on here appreciate the effort you put in to help the green new sufferers to stock photography. I read the feedback given often and you have helped point me in the right direction. To the next 5,000! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Rooney Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 You are one of our forum jewels, Steve -- thanks and congrats on reaching 5K. I'm about to reach 11K. But . . . long long ago when I decided to try to have a career in photography, I did not intend to make signs my specialty. I'm thinking now, when I reach 11,000 I will stop snapping signs. Maybe. 🤔 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Clemson Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Not just 5000 images, but 5000 carefully composed, well-researched, well described and accurately and concisely keyworded images. That is what makes it a noteworthy achievement and the success you have is well-earned. Being a good egg, as you clearly are, is a bonus. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zxzoomy Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Congratulations. We all know how much work it is to do well. (Lol, Ed: I will continue snapping signs, shops and police cars - when I have time). Why is being retired so busy? Should I get a job again? A glass collector? Cleaner? On the till at a supermarket? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Richards Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) Well done Steve. I'm approaching 6000 which I hope I can achieve before year end. Can't match you sales success though.
