I have had my payouts from mobile photos reduced from 5 bucks to two over the last few years, and to say that the opportunities are promising would be as bad as saying that the Russians hacked the Trump presidency.
I still shoot with my mobile, which is a LG V30+. And unfortunately, I will be doing so for stock use rather than for sharing.
But that's not to say that I would share what I shoot on Instagram. For those of you who have been wondering what I am up to can follow me there.
Writing a blog like this has been very fulfilling but it will never pay the rent or buy me enough beers to get totally smashed. So like everyone else, I will move on to greener pastures and continue to shoot on mobile for my Instagram account and on film. I have a separate blog on Blogger which caters to film photography....another site which I have abandoned since the technology in film or analog photography isn't advancing past where it stopped in the 90s.
I think this will be a fitting end. Mobile photography will live on. Hopefully when I have time to do a book and conduct actual classes, but it will be for one to one.
The sharing economy doesn't pay. Just so you know... I don't think I have gained anything by sharing. So with that in mind, I bid you farewell.
Perhaps we shall meet again in another life.
