So I'm a Nikon heathen, but I can appreciate good photography all the same. :P

Welcome to the steem blockchain, bud! I can appreciate the kit lens sentiment. I use a 28-130 lens, and it's so nice to be able to have some zoom when you need it. What locales do you love for shooting photography? Any place in particular that you really want to shoot?

Also, being new, you're going to find yourself kinda left to your own devices pretty quick. Thankfully, there's a lot of great groups that can help you grow. If I can take a moment to shill, here's a few suggestions:

Hive account@minnowsupport:

One of the largest groups out there, with global reach. It's backed by witnesses like Hive account@aggroed, Hive account@followbtcnews, Hive account@neoxian, Hive account@swelker101, and Hive account@someguy123. They have their own internet radio channel, and they're a great place to network with people! (Their photography section is a little dead right now. They could use some more awesome photographers jumping in and posting pics!)

Hive account@vimm

Livestreaming on the blockchain. It's a project run by me and Hive account@chiren, with a bunch of really cool people. Get rewarded for your streams, and support your favorite content creators! We're always growing and we love seeing new faces coming to the blockchain.

Hive account@actifit

This app can integrate with your fitbit, earning you Steem for your steps. Really awesome, and a great way to put yourself to work. I've been reporting my pushups for the #seven77 initiative in my Actifit reports. Great way to do it!

Hive account@partiko

Mobile app with iphone and android support. It's the easiest way to access the Steem Blockchain on your mobile phone. They really like referrals, and you'll get a little welcome bonus if you use my referral link.

And by all means, if you have questions, don't hesitate to ask me. I can be found on the Vimm or Minnow Support discords. Pretty hard to miss. Or just reply to this comment!
