I once knew a photographer who did that. He'd take 6-8 essensually identicale shots
and send each to
a different market. He often got multiple sales by doing that. An to make it even more
interesting
he claimed he told the customers that he had submitted slides that were taken only a
few seconds
apart to over markets, didn't seem to hurt his sales.
