Wow... I've been busy, but not with pictures

I've been busy doing other things apparently. After my last round of rejections at Alamy its been almost a month since I submitted new pictures. I went to the zoo with my wife and son and got some more pictures there that I am submitting to Alamy and PhotoShelter today. I got my first lightbox add at PhotoShelter the other day but nothing has come of it so far. I really prefer Alamy's stats because you know which images are hitting on which keywords and which are actually being looked at.

One thing is for certain, it takes a lot of work, time and opportunity to get decent pictures. I wish I had more of all of the above as well as some nicer equipment. It's still a fun process and having an early success like I did last month gets me in an irrational mindset. I already sold one, so they should be flying off the shelves right? I realize though that this is an unreasonable expectation since overall my catalog is still really small.

Who wants to come model for me? Who wants to give me free equipment? I promise to right good reviews like "This new Canon 1ds is super!".
