One thing I have been doing up until my extended break from work for the holidays was taking pictures as I would go through my day. Mostly random things; people, cars, funny signs and such, anything that I might have the most remote interest in writing and sharing would be subject for a couple photos just in case I needed them that night.
This past week I didn’t take one photograph, and the couple that I thought about taking I determined that it wasn’t worth the effort to walk back to my truck and get my phone so I could snap those shots. I had gotten into the habit of taking photos pretty quickly and fell out of it just about as quickly as I got into it.
I can tell you that my daily dose columns that included pictures with the story did seem to earn more money here on steemit than my posts without pictures. People say a picture is worth a thousand words, but how much does that equate to in SBD? I don’t have an exact way to determine that, anyone care to offer a guess?
Back when I really didn’t care, my old man selfish days, I figured my words were good enough to post because I really wasn’t writing for the people reading my stuff. Being the changed man that I am now, and you readers being a top priority, I need to make sure I deliver the best that I can each day.
Most of the people at Sola don’t know jack crap about writing something intelligent, and if something were to be written intelligently over there, I don’t know that half the users could even read it. Now I will tell you, in all honesty, I don’t believe Sola was intended for articles and stories with meaning and substance like steemit.com was intended. To me it is more of a twitter or snap chat from what I’ve been told, I have never seen or used those two social media forms I just mentioned, I am going from hear say on that.
So far over there I have posted a six meaningless posts and six pictures and have gotten $50 Sol, I think it is suppose to devalue today by .447 or something like that because their initial coin offering didn’t sell all they had and they had to burn some. I don’t care though, so I end up with a little over $20 Sol. I didn’t have to work at it, and I got to talk with God over there. Yes, God has account and is always passing judgment on people’s posts and pictures.
I will tell you that I actually enjoy seeing the pictures other people post, there are a bunch of beautiful places that are on this earth that I never knew existed. I will also tell you that Texas has beautiful women, but if something ever happens and I end up single again, I’m packing my bags for Russia. Just about every picture being posted that has a Russian origin is a smoking hot young chick that is scantily clad at best. Now I know why Vlad Putin wants to keep his country kind of isolated from the world; he doesn’t want to share their natural resources. Before you tell me how cold it is over there, hold your breath, if those babe’s can’t keep me warm, I am already dead, I’ll take my chances, heaven forbid I end up single again.
