    Struggling
    Hi, first off. I am a Student Photographer/Journalist. Well i haven't taken any photography classes yet, but i am a Student of a college and i take photos if that counts. I am on the school newspaper and take sports photos for it. *no payment*

    I take photos of the College sports(Jr College) and i was wondering how i would go about finding buyers for my photos. The baseball team has a dad that put photos on the web for free so i doubt i could get any buyers there, but the softball team doesn't or any of the other sports.

    I really need to make some $$$$ so any help is greatly appreciated.

    Tips on how to approach a buyer, shoot any tips at all.

    here is an image i have shoot, this is fairly typical of the shoots i get, is something like(below) even good enough to consider selling

    First off.. crop the pitcher vertical to remove all the wasted space on both sides of it. You can join a site like photoreflect for free.. and pay them 18% commission on all orders until you get big enough to pay another site $100 or more and only pay around 3% of your sales to the site.
