Reaching the First Big Stock Photo Payment with the Horse Abstract Picture



horse abstract Another little milestone in my microstock photography: reaching the first payment in Big Stock Photo. After six months I have got 267 pictures in my BSP portfolio and 32 sales reaching the $30 payout limit. So, sales are pretty slow, but growing from month to month.

The $30 earnings line was crossed by this horse abstract picture. It is one of very few pictures in my microstock portfolio which was not shoot by DSLR camera. It was taken with my waterproof point-and-shoot paddling camera, Pentax Optio W10. It was rejected by iStock due to artifacts, its commercial values was too low for Shutterstock, but it was sold already twice at BSP.
