Stock agencies are looking for the outstanding images, something that their clients will accept. They must be technically excellent.
When they submit images to their customers for publication their reputation is on the line. Local agencies in my neck of the woods required 100+ images for your first submission and you are expected to continue supplying images if you are accepted.. No sitting on your laurels.. Plus this is all at your expense. Whatever it costs to take the photos is down to you and believe me the rewards are not great for the effort required. The internet has killed the stock photo industry, that and greed. You can now buy an image online for as little as $2.50 and do what you wish with it. No limitations. A 10,000 print run, $2.50, and you as the photographer only get a portion of that. I get 50% but many get less.
If you're in it for the glory of having something in print, go for it. If you want a living out of stock photography, good luck...

Hi guys, Thanks for the nice comments, it's a sunrise not sunset, often a forgotten part of the day.
I'm not sure what you mean by 'Store original' ? As I understand it there's a size limit on posted images of 800px wide. The jpg original is 2.49MB and 3216px wide, it was downsized to fit the rules..Unfortunately I no longer have the unedited file and in this instance I wasn't shooting RAW only jpg.
Newsflash: Newbie finds answer to 'Store Original' in Help.. :)

Another sunrise from down under. Mandurah in Western Australia.
The pelican had been swimming away and I had to do a deal of running, waving and yelling to get him turned around. It was then a quick dash back to the tripod before he swam out of shot.
Pic is as taken apart from the removal of a small pole and a couple of small bright lights in the distance.
Nikon D300.. 18-70mm Nikkor.
