		<description>I hear you on the competition.  I was looking into Microstock photography as a way to make money off some of the photos I've taken, and was taken aback by the level of competition.  I've even read about amateurs who bought thousands of dollars worth of equipment to turn their bedroom into a studio just so they can get accepted into some of the more lucrative microstock sites.  It hardly seems worth the aggravation.  :-X

Don't give up though.  The more you blog the more you'll set yourself apart from the rest.  :D</description>
