Interesting. Is it taking a lot of time to upload pictures on alamy.com ?
How much pictures are you uploading to sell 10 or 12 a month ?

I'm not taking any photo for making money, and most of my pictures would
probably have nobody buying them, but if uploading is not taking too
much time, maybe that could be something to try. And maybe that would
allow me to get some money for buying new camera / lens if I'm lucky :)
