There are some that do it in here, who I am sure will respond, but generally speaking it's poor reward. Not a way to earn a living, but get enough out there and you'll earn enough for a meal out every so often.

I do it, but with music, which is very lucrative as music gains royalties whereas photos do not. (Sadly).

Thanks for the reply I love travel photography but was really looking to find something to keep me actively interested in photography (hopefully earning a few quid in the process) during the school holidays when not teaching or gigging, in light of your reply maybe I should spend my time on composing instead aha!
