Oh my goodness! I love that your cat is taking a selfie! Haha. I laughed so hard at this.
Anyway, welcome to the world of SteemIt. We have a lot of great photographers here on the blockchain, but I don't think there are many who do sports. I can't wait to see what you have for us!
One of the things that will help you grow here in the world of SteemIt is to remember that community is the reason this is such an amazing place to be. To get involved in that community you want to read what everyone is writing and you want to comment, sincerely comment on what you have read. This helps to get your name out there and helps people get to know you in addition to your blog posts and videos. Comment, comment, comment is what we encourage to grow in this community. However, being new you probably have a low Steem Power (SP) which means you will have a voting power and low resource credits. (You can find that information here: https://steemd.com/@yournameHERE). The key is, while you are so low in SP, to keep your Resource Credit number to about 80%. Here's a great article by @welcomewagon to explain why: https://steemit.com/welcomewagon/@welcomewagon/80-why-you-need-to-know-it
The same is with your voting power. If you are like we were when we began, we thought the "upvote" was like Facebook's "like" button. It is, but it holds a lot more weight because you are actually paying someone Steem (money) for their work. Because of that, you don't want to push the vote button for every post you read; only vote if it really is good quality and content you truly enjoyed. Here is a video by @sethlinson that might help explain it a bit better:
We hope this helps you get around easier. You are always welcomed to ask us questions and if we don't know the answer, we will get you to someone who can. Welcome to the SteemIt Community and can't wait to see what you have in store for us all!
First of all thank you. The guide will surely help me on how to use my votes wisely as you mentioned. Yeah, my cat is a funny character :D. I really appreciate your help, so thank you again.
I will try to post as much as I can when I can. Yes there are some great photographers in this community.
Looking forward to be part of the community.
Have a nice day.
Some of the tags you might want to use are things like #photographyfeed and #photographycircle. If you are doing any photos that deal with a place, take a look at @steemitworldmap. You go to https://www.steemitworldmap.com/ and find the place the photo was taken. Then click "code" at the bottom of the page. You will click the location and a bit of code will come up. Highlight and copy that code, then put it in your post (make sure to have an empty line above and click enter twice). It should not show up in your posted post and will show up on the map! It's amazing how addicting it is. Most of the Oklahoma photos are from us so far. haha.
Also, there are a lot of photography contests you might enjoy posting. @swmchallenge and @travelfeed (this one if for travel and landscape photography)
Good luck!
