RE: Newport Beach, USA

A friend who I encouraged to try steemit posted a pretty amazing drone video (imo) literally seconds before this photo.
He watched as he got $0.00 and this got thousands. He took it with humor, but definitely disillusioned with steemit now. This sort of thing is bad for the platform.
His post btw: https://steemit.com/photography/@langly/eight-point-buck-with-his-harem-shot-from-phantom-4#@slimjim/re-langly-eight-point-buck-with-his-harem-shot-from-phantom-4-20160801t130020206z

Same.. I encouraged a friend to share his photos too. He earns next to nothing. He's just happy to share and that he get's anything in return. Though when I see images and rewards like this, it just feels like a grand injustice and manipulation by the 1%. The actions of whales in this regard, hurts Steemit, it doesn't help it....by the way, I upvoted your friend for what it's worth :)
