Looking at them, I'd say they are genuine landscape photos either taken with a tilt shift lens, or manipulated in PS to appear that way. It seems to be a fairly trendy treatment method at the moment and there was even a full tutorial on the technique in last month's PhotoPlus.

Had another look at them and I agree with you. They had me fooled, I was sure they were models.

This website is not your normal 'stock photo site'. Take photos, tell your subject they can buy them, upload to this site and your customer can buy from there. All printing of prints and gifts is taken care of by the website, all you do is upload your photos tell your customer and then get paid when your photo sells. You will earn more here per image than any other site I have seen.

Check out ... - it costs nothing to be able to upload and sell your photos.

I cannot give the site link apparently in case I am a spammer! :-( so just go to:

eye for detail photography (dot) co (dot) uk

Hope this is helpful to you people who would like to earn a few bob doing something you enjoy.

I've not checked the site....and am unlikely to thanks to the spam......
but the idea sounds like many others where you order the prints frmo the site and the photographer gets a commission.

hardly ground breaking

Hi.

Roughly I'm taken 1000+ on Photographs a week. I live in aberdeenshire where you have wonderful scenery from morning to night. At the moment i'm taking pictures of birds, such as Wagtails, Blue-tits, chaffinch, robin etc. If there is anything that catches my eye, or anything unusual. I take it.
How would I go about broadcasting my bright and colourful pictures.

I have only read through a few posts but I like the way nobody has bothered to point out the legal ramifications !:mad::mad::mad::mad: You could quite unwittingly land yourself with legal action against you ! :eek:Learn the laws regarding taking photographs and what you can sell that alone could save you a fortune !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:A I most certainly would never let slip someone breeching the law in this respect !!!!!:mad::mad::mad:

why should it?

Um Der Because the hole point of this site is to save money and if people are posting claiming that something is an easy way to earn money and the readers are posting blatantly naive and over excited claims that they are suddenly going to earn cash from photographs that they have taken and the subjects that they have named can lead them to be sued then yes it should have been stated ! Are you aware of the amount of photographers that get arrested )have there DNA, finger prints and there there cameras and are jailed and only one has had compensation !(because he was a pro in a union) Think it will not happen to you think again it is not just pros ! Or how about because you are lacking in knowledge and you therefore dont know your rights as in what subjects you take photographs of illegal subjects ! Then there is taking photographs of subjects which if found by the subject owner they will remove from you and sold for their own profit !.......................

I was pointing out that it was irresponsible to claim anyone can just pick up a camera and send photographs to this site without pointing out the legal aspects. Dont listen makes no difference to me at all I was just trying to be nice and save you legal fees etc.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
