Thanks Jerry. I believe that the whole photography "market" is really saturated now with the ubiquity of digital and cheap equipment. I also place photos with stock agencies and the returns from that route are minimal. I guess there are just too many "free" sources. Personally I am not interested in going into the assignment route. Actually, I have done OK on steemit and made a few dollars (more than I have on stock sites). As you say, the better option might be to move into longer blog posts. I just need to rearrange my thought process. Thanks again.
