    Welcome to the forum. I know a woman who makes a little extra money selling her photos in my neck of the woods. She takes photos of local points of interest, floweres, buildings, barns... anything, and glues them onto a blank greeting card. Nothing real difficult, just a 3x5 or a 4x6 print from Wal-mart or wherever, and sells them for $2 each. She also makes some larger prints and frames and matts them for sale too. She has a display set up at a local craft/antique store. She also sets up a booth at local craft fairs. The area we live in gets a lot of tourist trafic and they like to pick up little items like the cards as keepsakes of there visit.

    Could be a simple way of taking some of your town shots and turning them into a few bucks without a lot of overhead.

    My dream job would be to be able to support myself by traveling the world shooting surfing and skimboarding. Emphasis on travel...

    I am also playing around with ideas to make some side cash with my photos. I just need more ideas....
