[sg_popup id=”12″ event=”onload”][/sg_popup]Like most artists, photographers learn by seeing the work of other artists. They derive inspiration from the various compositions, angles, textures & contexts that other photographers portray in their work. This makes it necessary for photographers to have a platform through which they can view the work of other industry professionals.
It’s also a good idea for them to have a platform to share their work so that they can get feedback. Content creators also find it difficult to source royalty free images.
Findshot is a platform that claims to cater to the needs of the aforementioned groups of people & also for high-quality image enthusiasts. Users will have to register on the platform so that they are able to post their work. Once registered the user will post their pictures provided they do not infringe on any copyright laws. The findshot team will then review the images before approving them.
Users agree to a creative commons license by posting their images which gives other users on the platform some liberties & rights in regards to the photos. Specifically, they can copy, download, modify & use for commercial purposes without any legal redress. Once you click on the “pick me” link an image is automatically downloaded to your device.
On the findshot Website, you will find photos with regards to various types of photography. These include:
- Portrait photography
- Landscape photography
- Night photography
- Nature photography
The Website will give an overview of how many views a photo has received & the number of people who liked that post. A post can also be shared on various other social media platforms including Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, Google+ & Pinterest.
Registered users can also follow other users so that they are notified each time someone posts something new. An additional feature is that one can subscribe to the monthly newsletter & the findshot team will choose some images that they will send to your email on a monthly basis.
