BLOCK TRADES CONTEST
I began posting here on Steem on 260 days ago in March 2018. I am a photographer and so the majority of my posts are dedicated to sharing the photos and stories of the places I visit and the lands around home. I share a mixture of short form and long form content, sometimes posting a single photo and caption and other times a full photo essay or tutorial. Nearly 100% of the content I share here was written first for the Steem network, and usually continues to live here exclusively. I've found some wonderful communities in photography including @photofeed @photomag @photocircle @curie and @czechglobalhosts photo contests.

Because of this view, I rarely discuss Steem here, or contribute in spreading FUD or hype about the network. I am here to share my photography and knowledge in those areas, and enjoy the audience who has signed up to see it!
