It didn't go well.

I want to stress that I am NOT a professional photographer. It's just a hobby for me, which I've enjoyed for decades. I did once sell a photo I took of the Fall colors on Sonora Pass (Sierra Nevada mountains of California), which was used as a book cover in the UK for some Apple MacOS book, and I was paid 50.00 £. That was fun, but I don't seek out sales of my photos. I do make prints for friends and family as Christmas gifts, that sort of thing, but that's it.
What about you? Have you sold a photo you've taken? What would you recommend to others who might be interested in selling a photo they've taken?
