Hello all,

I am new here however I am a long time devoted aerial photographer. Aerial photography is my job, my love, my passion and my life. Below are images of each series that make up my Earths Artwork compilation.

Fire-in-the-Sky (external link) series

Miscellaneous (external link) series

All together there are about 700 aerial photos in the Earths Artwork aerial photography compilations.. You can view all of them here... Earths Artwork Aerial Photography (external link)

I haven't made a cent from these photos and few people even know that the site exists! so if anyone can suggest where I could market them too or a gallery which would like to display them any advice would be much appreciated.

HAVE A SUPER DAY!!!!

Mike

Hi Mike;

VERY nice images; I love these aerial shots...

However; your watermark ruins the appreciation of them! A more subtle mark might be appropriate!

As for selling them; there's a raft of stock library sites available. Just "Google" something like "photo image library"...

Cheers;

Lee

Yes... agreed the watermark is sooo annoying. I am going to upload the images with a lower opacity. I also posted the folloing images in the colour comp forum so thought I would add it here...

Just loose that !@#% watermark...
you've got nice pictures there ruined because of it
you've posted low resolution files so what else are you afraid of?

I am turing the opacity down however need to do some backend work first as I have started a new numbering system... The images are being drawn straight from my website http://www.abovephotog​raphy.com.au/EarthsArt​work (external link) (check it out there are over 700 Earths Artwork photos there). I agree the watermark is too dark however it protects the images from being stolen (small or big).

Ask yourself if the "theft" of a 0.17 megapixel image could possibly cut into your sales.

The big watermark is hurting your sales more.

If you want people in a photography forum to appreciate them, comment on them and learn from them, then just put a small logo in the corner and leave it at that.
