I had been listing many of my photographs in various platforms such as FB, Medium, Twitter(X), OpenSea as well as the main repository and archive that is ClickASnap . Facebook groups tend to be topic specific so there is only a limited engagement beyond the subject that is of interest to them. Medium is more text and prose oriented so trying to entice readers to read a post which refers to images is typically a lost effort. OpenSea is a NFT oriented platform and has lost much of its cachet in recent years. I still have several hundred imaged listed there but they get no attention. The Twitter(X) platform made a dramatic turnabout after Elon Musk purchased it and branded it as a purveyor of Truth and Free Speech. It has become the instrument of vitriol and far-right propaganda. It is not the place to expose ones photography to a wide audience. Well, if those images are violence, sexual or political then it IS the place for them. Here is where BLUESKY.SOCIAL comes in to play as the new...

  Civil War soldier monument at Gettysburg, Pa . I took this picture in 1979 on TriX Pan film. The image has been recaptured digitally from a print since the negative was lost along with hundreds of others of my photos. In the intervening years the statue has been cleaned and polished to its original bronze luster. I feel the weathered version of this man holds a far greater emotion. I recently (2022) revisited Gettysburg battlefield memorial and reshot several pictures I originally did in 1979. This one is John Burns from 1979 before it was cleaned and restored. That face speaks volumes about the plight of men in that tragic war. Photo by Robert Carlson You can find hundreds of my photographs in the ClickaSnap platform at my profile name "Lens4anEye".

When I signed up for using the ClickASnap.com photo sharing platform I was drawn to to as a place where I could display my photographs and generate sales of prints. The marketing copy said they were a global operation and people would be able to see my work and go to the integrated Seller Shop to purchase what they had just been seeing. A perc was that people who who viewed my pictures long enough would generate a small revenue. At the Free subscription the amount would be $0.001 per view and $0.009 per view at the Pro subscription level. I opted for the Pro subscription and generated about $180 in the first 12 months. It's not a great deal of money but it does pay for the subscription fee (for the current year and now for 2024).  All the work I did to prepare images was not for the token view-fee but for the exposure being on an international, long established platform would get for my photography. In that first 12 month period 45,000 + views were registered with about 46% of the...
