Each month, we showcase some of the top Licensing submissions in our 500px New in Licensing Gallery. In this series, we explore why these photos are in high demand and make excellent Licensing content. As part of our commitment to educate and inform our 500px Licensing Contributors, we feature new and relevant photos on a monthly basis to inspire creativity and connect Contributors with the latest trends in the Licensing industry. So, without further ado, let’s dive into this month’s top 10 photos that are sure to captivate and inspire.
First up, Clii Fairy’s May submission is a great example of capturing trending themes within Licensing. We chose to feature this photo because it showcases concepts of DIY, crafting, small business, learning new skills, and leisure activities.
1. We appreciate how Clii captured an intimate close-up, drawing attention to the action of crocheting. The inclusion of hands in the image provides a sensory experience for viewers.
2. The neutral color palette of this photo allows it to blend seamlessly with a variety of branding styles, making it appealing to a wider range of content buyers.
This fantastic shot by Suriya Silsaksom ticks several boxes on how to create a licensable photo. From copy space to perspective, this photo stands out as a gem in the world of Licensing.
1. The dog is slightly off-center, leaving room for potential photo buyers to add copy space. The depth of field also allows designers to add standout copy against the blurred foreground and background.
2. The bright red color contrasts beautifully with the white dog and blank sky, creating incredible balance in the photo. The perspective of the bridge adds visual interest for viewers.
We absolutely adore this shot by Fabio Formaggio. The photo feels real and relatable, making it perfect for commercial advertising.
1. The photo effortlessly portrays a young woman preparing for a run in a genuine and unstaged manner. The captured action feels authentic.
2. Fabio’s representation of positive diversity within the Arab community by featuring a woman with a hijab participating in physical activity is commendable.
Shot details: ILCE-7RM3A24-70mmƒ/4 | 1/640s | ISO 160
Rakesh Baro has a plethora of incredible wildlife content in his Portfolio. We love this new addition to our Licensing gallery for several reasons.
1. It tells a story. The shot of the bird collecting a small branch captures a moment of action. The splashing water and the bird’s feathers add excitement for viewers.
2. We appreciate that Rakesh includes location information and detailed descriptions of the photo for potential image buyers. This particular photo was taken in Mysuru, India, and features a spot-billed pelican.
Sweet, chic, and swoon-worthy—Malihe Dehghan’s stunning studio shot has captured our hearts. Here’s what we adore about it.
1. The pink color pops against the gray background, drawing viewers’ attention to the intricate details.
2. The expert styling and composition of the arrangement are visually pleasing and intriguing for viewers.
