Intro
In my very first post on Steemit, I posted a photo of Two Jack Lake in Banff National Park that I took when I was scouting for a location to practice my astrophotography skills. I promised that I'd share a few of those photos with you in the near future. Seeing that it's been 13 days since I joined Steemit and made that promise to you, I figured I had better follow through. After finding out that today is also the last day to enter 
Photo Details
Like I said above, I took these photos at Two Jack Lake on the last day of July, up in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada. I used my recently acquired Canon 6D, and a not so common combination of lenses. For the wide angle shots I used a Canon 17-40L, and for the longer shots, the Canon 50 1.8 STM. I'd love to own the 16-35L 2.8 ii, but just haven't spent the money on it yet. I was surprised by the quality that this camera/lens combination gave me for these photos. Drop a comment below if you have more specific questions about these exposures.
First Two Weeks on Steemit!
If you haven't read some of my earlier posts and know this already, I'll fill you in. I decided to start posting on Steemit because I thought it had some potential to help me earn a little extra for my photography. However, I didn't want to have big dreams or aspirations and have them die out because I didn't show the amount of dedication needed to reach them. So, I set an initial goal for myself and have committed to posting at least 30 quality posts in my first 30 days on Steemit. This is the 13th day since joining, and this is my 16th post. So far I've made a 194 comments, followed 55 people, and acquired 70 followers. I've also been able to increase my reputation score from 25 to 47 in just 13 days. My highest rewarded post has made currently just under $53. All in all my expectations have been exceeded, and I'm thoroughly looking forward to the next 17 days! I'm planning to post a 30 day summary once I get there! If you have a story about your Steemit experience I'd love to hear about it below. If you have any tips for growing your account, I'd be eager to hear them.
