Sales are picking up on Shutterstock

The last two years have been abysmal for photo and footage sales.  When Shutterstock allowed pretty much everybody to submit photos and videos 2 years ago, sales went down 40-60%.  Since anyone with an iPhone could submit photos, the photo and footage pool got swamped with crap photography and crap footage, all the good stuff sank to the bottom and the crappy stuff just poured in.  This week I even sold a 4k video for $1.80US which is a joke.  This month seems to be starting really well.  So far I've sold 3 videos and 13 photos just on Shutterstock.

I hope the U.S economy keeps going the way it is.  The Canadian economy sucks thanks to our Zoolander PM.  I sell a lot of my stuff in the States and Europe along with the far east.  All I have to say is #MAGA.

Tomorrow we go to Algonquin Park to see the leafs changing colors.  Hope there is no rain.
