Find the World's Coolest Toilets for Lonely Planet


If you are on the photo sharing site +500px , they have put out a call for licensing bathroom pictures on behalf of +Lonely Planet​.  Their example is an outhouse photo, so your favorite outhouse photos from Bodie should be fair game!  

For the photographers joining me in Bodie this Saturday, look for opportunities in golden hour light, without the daytime crowds as we access the park before it opens and after it closes.


The contest is much broader than just outhouses, so see what other ideas you can come up with as well.  You can find more details on the "Find the World's Coolest Toilets for Lonely Planet" opportunity here.

Image buyers are using 500px Prime


I put about 50 photos into the +500px Prime licensing service when it was released a few months ago, and I didn't give it a second thought. I went back and checked yesterday, and I had $354 in royalties waiting for me. The average $7 per image won't buy me a new camera, but I did order a new tripod, and it will be arriving early next week.

 If I had uploaded a couple of high quality photos per day, the few hundred dollars might have been a few thousand. If you're a photographer on 500px who has put photos into Prime, I'll put the link to your 500px store in the description for this photo on 500px.

Here's the same photo on G+, in case that helps Blogger provide a thumbnail image when this blog post gets posted on G+...
