Liking what we do makes us better at it, in my opinion anyway, although I suppose most people would prefer to something other than what they do for work - It's not always possible.
You're a professional photographer huh? Seems like a legit job...I'm not a very good one, I try though, and manage to get a reasonable shot now and then. I'm perfected a really cool strategy...point and press shutter release. The rest is left to chance.
In my humble opinion photography is less a job than it is an expression of an inner desire to capture a moment in time. Although I am qualified and I know ratios, techniques, and timing, I too am very specific about my clientele these days. It is not enough to prostitute ourselves out to a bank balance. I applaud your dedication to the pursuit of more than just monetary gain.
Please if you will also tell me how to vote and gift... I press the icons but I am still in the dark.
Hmm...ok well I need to let you know I do all my own photos on Hive, and occasionally do a "photography" post...I have limited skill, not enough interest to learn just yet and not time to do so anyway so...be kind. Lol.
Ok...I've just delegated 1000HP (hive power) to you. It's mine but on loan to you so your vote has a little behind it, being low on RC (resource credits) might have affected the vote-ability you had. I'll leave the delegation with you until you earn some HP of your own.
The voting...Just click on the little heart as per the image below to upvote.
The image below shows you how to downvote. Click the three dots and a drop down will open.
With gifting...don't worry about that, you don't have enough to gift and should be focusing on gathering not gifting at this stage.
My advice: *10-15 outbound (top level) comments per day on other people's posts after you have read them. Make them interesting and relevant...it's how relationships form and that's how you'll start to get better votes. Post once a day with passion, personality and effort and those you engage with will have something to see when they check you out.
If you have questions don't be afraid to ask me or my brother @tarazkp and @meesterboom, @revisesociology or @slobberchops will be happy to help you too.
Thank you so much for your advice.
No worries, I'm here to help. Been around for over six years and feel it's my duty.
Also thank you for the hp boost. I really appreciate the help.
No worries, use it to vote on others and leave a comment when you do.
