James Hodgson Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Hi. I set up my alamy account ages ago but I've now finally decided to start uploading regularly. So far I have done a kind of test upload with live news at Bristol balloon fiesta just to get to know how it all works. I know everyone has asked this and I'm sure it's becoming a little tedious for the regulars on here. But 'dare I say it', any advice on keywords from those first pictures I have uploaded would be great. Picture feedback is also appreciated but before anyone says it, these where straight out of camera as it was the early hours of the morning when I uploaded so I already know there is an element of post processing missing from these.

James Hodgson Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Hi. I guess I need a few more pics on here before I get any replies. But I'm just trying to nip any problems in the bud to save time in the future. Any harsh words ae also appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCat Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 OK. I'll start. Alamy doesn't do "stemming" so you need to put in "balloons" as well as "balloon". The images look good to me. Paulette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Hodgson Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Ed, I couldn't agree more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Hodgson Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Hi. Yes thanks for that. Silly mistake with which ones I had selected I think. The world tag was related to "world balloon fiesta" as an alternative to international. Maybe I should have that as a three word tag (as one)? Any thoughts? Thanks for all this by the way, it's really helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Hodgson Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 excellent ok. Hmm... bit tricky that one. it is only mentioned officialy as 'international....' but it seems to be known as 'world...' by many people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
