Money for your photos for fun!

in #new8 years ago

Hi 1AU

Intro

I have always liked the idea that all energy expended,   positive or negative should result in an equal return. Even the fun stuff, like your own personal photographs. I don't mean being a swanky photographer but just those cool photos that you took! Like the one on my post here.

Its like Einsteins equation E=Mc2, which explains the relationship between mass and energy. Every time you expend some energy, even fun energy; there should be a reward. I would like to think that c2 is the missing component to convert fun into money s(t)eamlessly (corny I know). Perhaps steem is the c2. I certainly hope so.

EyeEm

I recently posted some of my personally edited snaps on EyeEm. They explained in detail how to convert my photos into income. Okay, okay so this is a site for professional photographers. Which I'm not. EyeEm's about page reads as follows.....

"EyeEm is a global photography community on a mission to discover and showcase new talent. Our marketplace is the largest platform for brands and agencies to license authentic, royalty-free images."

Sounds easy enough, perhaps I am new talent, perhaps not. Anyway I gave it a go, and followed all the instructions to the T. ...................boom....nothing happened, I have not made a cent. :-(

Was the EyeEm community correct, I'm an aka "rubbish photographer". Should I swallow my pride and move on.

I would love to prove eyem wrong and up my esteem (double corny), however for this experiment to work, you must only up-vote the post of the 2 photo's below, if you genuinely like the photographs. In other words, would you, or someone you know legitimately consider using these photos in a commercial context.

If you genuinely do, then click up-vote. As a gift to you, please also consider this as a license to use my photos below where ever you feel you could, expect of course in anything related to drugs, sex and anything illegal. 

Ok go.......let me know what you think!


If you want to know more about where, and how I took these photographs, send me a comment.

Great photos. How long have you been doing photography?

Only really while on holiday, since 2011. So I would categorise at seldom!

I want to know ! , @sotura

I took them here https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Giants+Castle+Camp/@-29.3448024,29.4116261,12z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x1848ad9a8fd4d417!8m2!3d-29.2699283!4d29.5198345

On a weekend out with my daughter, there was an annual butterfly run with millions of butterflies, couldn't even see the sky sometimes. I got a photograph of one of these butterflies posing on my daughter nose. It took about 2 hours to get one to land exactly right, but made for a perfect pic. The beetles, were just random!

Good job! Love the photos!

Lovely photos sotura.

I like them both, what camera and lens are you using?

Canon EOS 550D Digital SLR Camera (inc 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit)
Ordered on 24 March 2011 on amazon

How did you take the detailed photograph?

As I'm not a photographer, this might be missing the point , but I think putting the camera on P mode for paparazzi, closeup gave a chance for multiple shots and chance to catch the perfect shot must have taken over a 100 pics.

that's a good advise to make as much shots as possible( I am not a photographer, but i do like photography)

Wonderful photos - very talented. Look forward to seeing more of your work

Check my photos :)

you have luck, you have art, only i have my brain, i study psychology, my art is change mind for a good world
