This is EXACTLY where I'm at!
Honestly, I would have been totally okay with never picking up a DSLR again and just grabbing little pics on my phone, but Steem has changed all of that... not only am I constantly inspired, but I want to share my entire process with this platform, and I can potentially recoup some of the costs if people like my posts, it's an absolute win/win. I really hope this platform is successful, because, honestly, I'm really excited about how this might change my life.
I'm so glad you related to my post so much... I got a lot of comments saying I shouldn't waste my talent, but I don't think people understand that talent is such a small part of the equation.. grit and negotiation seem way more important, and I'm just not interested in playing that game anymore.
I am excited about taking more photos though... for me... and maybe for you.
Thanks so much for your comment, I super loved it so hard.
Same here! I literally blew a quarter inch of dust off of mine when I pulled it back out! Lol.
I've been loving it though. Much more than shooting for people. ;-)
What do they mean waste your time? Posting on steemit? That doesn't make sense...I guess it depends on why you do it.
Hey @jewels3, I think you misread my comment, people were saying I should waste my talent... as in, I'm a good photographer so I should be out there shooting. The point I was trying to make was that getting photos like these isn't easy, there is a whole lot of set up and expense, and that's what a road I won't go down again... getting natural photos, that I'm excited about!
I'm so glad you're back in and loving it! That's so exciting!
I did misread it! Oops.
