- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Does anyone know how a person goes about getting their work noticed? How someone would get photos in some type of gallery showing [not talking about online]. Are there books on the subject? All I seem to find online are sites trying to sell web space to "make your own gallery"
Several people have suggested I try to sell some of my photos, and as someone who had their own photo business 30 years ago, I feel I have the talent - just need to polish the skills because I've been away from it for so long. My business didn't last too long back then,[1977] as I had no studio and had to work in the customers home, which wasn't real popular back then, nor was my idea [a bit ahead of its time] doing pet portraits.
I'm not really interested in a business like that right now, I'd rather sell some of my old work, and some of my new stuff, plus some of my photo art creations.
I looked into stock photograpy and found its not what I want....not very profitable. Any info or help would be appreciated. Just feeling the waters right now, no definate plans as yet.
Thanks.
