Everyone's busy. Everyone's looking out for him/her self.

Actually, so am I. But every now and then, I go thru the INTRO MYSELF posts, searching for those that are high-quality, and those that show promise. And I've always sided with the underdog, so here on Steemit, if I can help many newbies, I will get some sense of satisfaction.

You're welcome. You’re welcome. One more point. Submitting photos in the various photo contests is a great way to earn a bit of Steem and to attract followers. Here are links to 3 contests.

@photocontests, organized by @juliank
Daily color challenges, organized by @colorchallenge (Temporarily inactive)
#tepchallenge, organized by @theexplorer

For entries into those photo contests, short posts are OK. But it's a good idea to add a bit of text explaining the photo, to give the post some meat and to make it more interesting.

I'll make sure to keep an eye out on the challenges. Sadly I'm not a photographer...

Thinking about it, I might just start fiddling with photography a bit, as I love art.

Thanks for the tips, and good luck!
