Starting My Third Year

Starting my third year on FAA and have been busy as of late, attacking my portfolio with a vengeance. I have had a minimal amount of sales the past two years and trudge on submitting new work and reviewing old work. Sometimes this means throwing out the clutter and so far I believe I have deleted 200 images and added more key-wording and descriptions for an equal amount. Still a lot more to do and some images I can't part with just yet because I see potential or I have sentimental attachment to some. I paid for last years fees so I am still ok with that, I know it takes some time to become recognized and plan on working even harder to achieve that. One thing I noticed in reviewing my past images vs the newer stuff I submit is how I have developed in my skills and the photos are getting more composition. Time, patience and practice is the best advice I can give anyone thinking of giving up. Been a fun two years here and looking forward to the next. Also thanks to all who post on here, Mike, Floyd, Karen and the rest, you all have taught me much and to this I say thank you.

A lot of Good arts.
However you must be more specific with descriptions and art in galleries.
For example in "panorama" instead of "Nothing but panoramic images".
Define what you think is panorama.Explain proportions, maybe.
Some images do not belong to this gallery. Easy fix.

Thank you Viktor for the observation, I renamed the Gallery Stitched images of which they all are. I will spend more time on it tomorrow.

Think like a buyer. Would they know what Gallery Stitched means?

I would stick with Panoramas as most people know what thar means.Keep in the gallery description that it is a number of images joined together.
On the other hand maybe curiosity of what a stiched image is will make them look in the gallery
