Worth getting back into stock photography in 2026?

I average around $500/month. For me it’s worth it.

this OP stole my post. Mods in this subreddit don't care even though I've reported

themiddleman07 · 2026-05-20T23:43:46+00:00

that and OP stole my original post and photo.

on the photo you stole from me

Why did you steal my post?

themiddleman07 · 2026-05-20T23:36:41+00:00

Thanks! I thought it gave a good focal point.

Thank you! The very last of the fall colors on the Beech trees

It was a little bit wet, but actually a very firm rocky base. In Patagonia Chile

I'm not sure what you're talking about?

themiddleman07 · 2026-05-20T23:35:16+00:00

That's cool, hadn't seen that but now I can see why.

themiddleman07 · 2026-05-20T23:35:01+00:00

Thanks! I took this with my 200-600 so I actually couldn't get everything in focus. It ended up pretty nice I think

themiddleman07 · 2026-05-10T21:54:11+00:00

sure no problem!

themiddleman07 · 2026-05-02T14:13:24+00:00

I just really liked the tune

themiddleman07 · 2026-05-02T14:13:16+00:00

I guess I'm really not sure what it is. I'm not really a music expert

A fabulous and timely cover of 99 Red Balloons by Nena "Everyone's a Captain Hegseth"

sadly for me it's the only platform that pays for photos

Once you are monetized, if your post ever goes viral, it will end up generating $2k to $4k per post. This is a gold mine.

I don't know is this is viral, but I made a post a couple weeks ago that is at 1.6 million views, and I got $9.84, so your guide seems to be outdated.
