Photography discussion again a little diffrent questions though

Well you already know about the stock photo sites, and there is even another site that I cannot remember the name of right now, that will frame your photograph and sell it for you. I might tell you if I remember. If you do not want to go any such online routes, you might of course try becoming a photographer for hire. Mostly people will want you for weddings and stuff. A friend of mine does this. The cameras and equipment for professional photography can be insanely expensive, but if you really are going to use it it may actually pay for itself, and then pay for you too! I always though a photo is a photo; you can buy a digital camera at the mass stores and then use photoshop to make a photo look better by adjusting the contrast and adding some filters. However, after seeing the raw photographs of this friend I mentioned earlier, I've come to other insights: Real professional cameras and lenses really do make a difference. They make a directly taken picture already look like a photoshopped special FX picture. So, if you're really serious about what you want to do, go for it!

It is rightly said that "A picture is worth 1,000 words" well more appropriately it can be worth 1000 bucks as well.Even though i am not much into photography but a friend of mine is highly passionate about this.From the information that i have there are various stock photography sites and you simply have to sign up with them and further if someone buy your photograph to use in their work then you get a percentage of each sale.There are many sites,i can name a few of them like 1.)ShutterStock,where you get $0.25 all the way up to $28.00 per image download. 2.)BigStockPhoto,will pay you 30% of the US dollar price when someone downloads a single image. 3.)123RF,where you receive $0.36 per download. hope this information will help you friend.
