Wikipedia says, “Stock photography is the supply of photos licensed for specific uses. It is used to fulfill the needs of creative assignments instead of hiring a photographer. Today, stock images can be presented in searchable online databases.” Stock photography is usually sold at discounts. Clients are able to license stock photographs for $2 or less, and photographers make money each time a client chooses one of their photos.
In other words, you have the ability to selling photos online! Not just the Pros!
