TO START THINGS OFF...
I find myself shooting a lot of wine photos lately because for some reason I sell the heck out of them. Most of my stock images have wine or beer ( booze in general ) as the main subject. Booze sells so stick with a winner!
The last image is my number one seller at this point in time so I thought it would be a good first post. ( sold over fifty times in five months! ) Also a few other underachievers.

IN THE BEGINNING...
Here we go...I'm starting this blog because It's free, and I'm really into free these days. It's not that being unemployed is a bad thing, after all, doing the dishes, running the washer and dryer and the vacuum cleaner everyday is good exercise...who knew? Anyway, after all my daily chores are done and dinner is on the stove ( I've become quite the cook as well ) I settle into the darkness of my little cramped garage photo studio and try to create an image or two that I can sell as stock photography. So I guess I'm sorta self employed...sorta being the buzz word here. At this point I have 133 stock photo images distributed to several different agencies who sell them to graphic designers for publication work. Each of these agencies has roughly 20 some odd million stock photos on file from tens of thousand photographers from around the world. The competition is tough so when I sell over ten stock photos a day I get really excited indeed! The amount paid to me for each sale is a whopping twenty five cents on average. Thats three dollars a day! So to further entertain myself I decided to start this blog to share my three dollar a day talent with the rest of the world. So I hope everyone will enjoy it, check back often as I will try to add stuff daily or at least every day or three!
P.S. You can click on each image for a larger view. Also, in order to protect the copyright on each image I add a watermark (B.ENRIGHT) so I can get my damn twenty five cents!!!
Cheers!
