As the approval rates are so high, there's very little variation in what each agency has available. This validates the agency comparison aspect of the data, much more so than my own portfolios which are someone scattered. 123rf got a bonus batch of variations so they have slightly more than the other agencies. -Lee With the obvious exception of iStockphoto, all agencies are getting the same photos submitted, and more or less at the same time.

It would be interesting to see what is being sold and if there were any reasons. Also if there was a type of photography that each house was looking at. Or is each house getting a different type/group of photo's. If so what is that type of photo that is being sold at each house if there if a type. If he was to down load those that sold at the other sites I think it might be interesting to see if the smaller seller site might move to a higher level.

He knows that the content he's submitting now is relatively low-performance stuff. Yes, but his expectations are being well managed.

Just to learn the composition and framing for subjects would be a great talent. I think it comes with experience and being around those who have an eye for stock photos. Hopefully I can learn from these examples. I could really learn a lot from someone like this.
