You'll get a ton more votes if you include images in your post. As a photographer if you can include photos and write things about them that personalize the experience and what the photos mean to you it seems those are the ones that get the best response.
Welcome to steemit and if you start slow... stick with it. Do what you love, and would be doing anyway, and be happy when you also manage to get some payment for it.
I'm up voting you. You can edit your post within the first 12 hours it is on the site. The sooner you can add some images the better it is likely to do. :)
Thanks for the reply. I just joined today and still have a lot to learn. Once I figure out how to post a pic, I'll certainly upload them.
Already seems to be working. I post a lot and most my posts make less than $1. Not bad you're at over $1 in less than an hour. If you don't make a ton... keep at it.
Will take in your advice especially about personalizing the experiance!
