Do you make living or looking forward to do so from stock imagery?

Recently found on web Getty Images changing hands. More details you may find in BJP article here.
As you may know Getty Images is one of the biggest players on the market since 1993.

If you are new to stock photography and would like to try this business then you may try Dreamstime.com. This is successful and friendly medium size company.
How much you may earn with stock photography? If you'll find your niche in this environment then average earnings for the beginner would be around $ 1.00 per image per month assuming you have 50+ images online.
As my own portfolio at Dreamstime in general consists of non-dedicated shots in the middle of other commercial projects then five bucks per full size image I considering as nice topping apart from the fact that sometimes you have to wait for cherry a couple of years. Although business is tedious and picky, image sometimes generating more cash than whole assignment in the past. And business is running while you sleep.

Good luck to all of you. And have busy week!

P.s. This is about "fast food for the eyes", isn't? Yet it proves ability to survive in harsh modern information space.
