Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted June 4, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted June 4, 2021 Had a bit of a stroll down the Old Railway Path behind us, no rails anymore and just a footpath with natural nature surroundings, animals like foxes darting around and all types of birds (yes, female ones too walking their dogs ) No cars allowed down there but bikes are ok and the history of the Old Railway tracks go back to 1847 when they were there. Edinburgh, Leith and Newhaven Railway Days gone by. Today 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted July 27, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted July 27, 2021 Some more pics our daughter took yesterday at Arthurs Seat, Edinburgh, 2 lovely photos of a bee on the ground exausted with all the flying around, the daughter did the old trick and put some juice water from the bottle in a cap and poured it next to the bee, it had a drink then flew off into the wild blue yonder. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted September 1, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted September 1, 2021 @nudge, all that wall by Trump to stop a Road Runner Quote Road runner stopped by Trump’s border wall wins Bird Photographer of the Year Take flight and explore stunning photographs of some of the most endangered and enigmatic species of bird in the world. As photography subjects go, birds are notoriously (and literally) flighty. So it’s not hard to admire the work on show at the Bird Photographer of the Year contest. The winners of the 2021 prize have been announced, spanning a range of technical categories, narrowed down from a flock of 22,000 entries. The prize-winning work showcases some of the world’s most colourful species and also highlights their delicate, essential place in our world.

Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted September 3, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted September 3, 2021 Some fantastic wildlife photos from CNN wildlife photographer competition (ill post a few of my favs but the link has 15 and they are all pretty amazing) https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/wildlife-photographer-award-2021-scli-intl-scn/index.html US photographer Jonny Armstrong captured this fox searching for salmon carcasses in Alaska. Spanish photographer Sergio Marijuán took this photo of an Iberian lynx in the doorway of an abandoned hayloft in the Sierra Morena. This image of a lioness dripping with bright red blood was taken by British photographer Lara Jackson in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. Sri Lankan-Australian photographer Buddhilini de Soyza feared these male cheetahs wouldn't make it out of a flooded river in Masai Mara, Kenya. US photographer Jack Zhi shot this image of a young white-tailed kite taking a live mouse from its father in mid-air. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber nudge+ Posted September 17, 2021 Author Subscriber Share Posted September 17, 2021 I have posted a few of my astrophotography images on social media recently, and have just received a partnership offer from a small media company that specialises in stock images Apparently, they want to me to regularly contribute astro-related images to them, with me earning a 60% commission. I am obviousy going to discuss terms and whatnot before I commit to it, but what are your thoughts? Decent opportunity to earn some passive pocket money? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers John! I'm naturally mistrusting and always wary about things like that, but a quick research suggests they are legit, and in the end, I don't have anything to lose considering I take those images as a hobby anyway... Might as well give it a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd do it just because, as you said, its a hobby and if you can get paid for a hobby then nothing like it.

Are they offering you percentages of sales on the stock images? Yes, 40% for non-exclusive and 60% for exclusive stock images, plus an active promotion of my content to the target customers for 6 years. It's a new and project by a group of Asian photographers and artists, so I expect a very slow start, but what I like is that they are focused on selling specific content instead of generic stock images, as I think it has by far more potential than competing with big and already established microstock platforms.

Have you got anything to lose in the long term? If it’s very specific images, sounds like you’ve got a decent opportunity to break into that niche market and set the standard.
