Pointed out problems I was not aware of. I'd like to make some income from photography, but the cost of more equipment would probably just make it a hobby rather than making a living as being past retirement age, I still need income which I do taking photos of products for my eBay Store making a living that way.

The better the shots the more you sell, although try to not make them too proffesional as customers will think your a commercial dealer, sometimes a good thing but not always.

My photos are better than most of the competition and are bringing in more sales, BUT also my photos were used by the competition by stealing them. I've turned the sellers over to eBay to take the competition's listings down and I now add a more prominent but not over powering watermarks as well as break eBay's rule of using a plain white background as I use a piece of blue material with a pattern that is impossible to remove unless silo'ed and none of my photos have been stolen since then.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for replying to my comments.

Why do you have to be a youngster? What is your age range of "youngster"?
