Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
After much deliberation and trying many things to try and make money from my photography but getting nowhere I have finally managed to get my images accepted on a stock website! Hopefully this will work well and I can finally start earning from my hobby! Wouldn't that be great? XD I have sent 4 images for testing to Alamy after signing up and they accepted first time! OMG! I am so excited I had to post on here for everyone to hear! If you would like to know the images that I used were Duck Reflection, Horse Eye, Scotland Road and Cup with Rose on Table and you can see them on my Flickr page (link below). Wish me luck guys! I would recommend if you can't get into the more stock scrupulous websites.
 
Congratulations; it's always a good feeling when your work is validated by others. That said, I would not count on getting rich this way. Unfortunately stock, which used to be a way to make a decent living is so saturated that, most people are happy if they can make enough for a six-pack on the weekend through it. Not a comment on your work, simply on the amount of work that's available.

yes I know but it is a start nonetheless. I would be happy to get anything. I just want some recognition mostly
 
Congrats Rose....all the best.

Beef, fish or what sort of stock are we talking here?
 
You have some nice photos but the Terms & Conditions on those type sites usually are not too favorable to the site users/photographers; I wouldn't expect to be able to make much money with your photography on sites like that. If you didn't already I'd suggest looking thru the Terms; from what I've seen I don't think I'd use the site or agree to the terms.

I don't know what else is available where you live; in the US I'd look at the Photo District News listing of agencies that handle stock (but I don't do stock to know how competitive it might be or how easy/difficult it would be to get accepted).
