Glimee some blindey!
- Gabriel, are you using Shutterstock to sell your images?
- I did in the past. But that is one of the worst types of income for a photographer.
You are underpaid, your images has nearly no value in the vast and complex database with tens of millions of images for sale. But this image I share with you it was sold.
It was sold a total number of 28 times for a total of $14.81 in three years and a half.
As a photographer, you may have realised that selling your images on microstock sites does not worth. That's why I swapped and disabled everything I have for sale on all my sites and uploaded them for free on my Unsplash Profile.
But it has been a good experience and learning curve. In life, you learn by experience and trials and errors.
So, this is the image. More technical data is below...
