Hello,

I'm a brand new member of Photoportfolios.net. I have several thousand images in my nature stock library (www.naturestocklibrary.com) and it's so difficult to figure out which ones I should post in my portfolio on photoportfolios.net. I've opted to just choose a couple from each type of image I have and create a general portfolio; however, even this is a little challenging. I have tons of dramatic images of wildlife, but I also have general/generic natural patterns, waterfalls, etc. Any suggestions for creating my 120 picture portfolio? If you've been successful selling images, what kinds of photos worked best for you?

Thanks in advance!

Christina, thanks for displaying your work on PhotoPortfolios.net! You have some really nice photos in the portfolio, with "Breakwater Silhouettes" and "Island" standing out from the rest - at least to my eye.

Your question is a good one, and makes me think that we need to create a page on the site of photos that sold. In the mean time, take a look at the most viewed photos and that will give some idea on what kind of photo gets the most attention.
