'Candy floss at the fairground' My first entry to the #bwphotocontest 'FOOD' organised by @davecs and judged this week by @everlove
-------------------------------please click on photo for fullscreen-------------------------
The fairground is full of noise and colour, so it's good to go b&w sometimes, often taking away the distraction of colous allowing the viewer to focus on the form, composition and content that the photographer intends.
Camera and settings
Canon 550d
Canon efs10-22mm @ 10mm
1/60sec, @ f8, iso3200
Good luck to all entrants!

I'm with you on the plagiarism on Steemit, I've seen too many people posting other people's art and photography. I would be livid if someone banked off of my work, even if they only got a couple pennies out of it.
The corporate industries are the worst culprits for plagiarism of course, but steemit is attracting scammers. as there's dollars to be made. Well actually, you wouldn't think so going by the amount my photos earn on average in rewards, hahaha, but actually that's a lot of money in some countries and in some circumstances of extreme poverty when you add them up over a period of time. The problem is that they're robbing all good photographers all of the time, in the sense that it is due to this scamming that prevents curies and more powerful voters from supporting photography as much as other creative content, as they need to feel absolutely certain without any doubt that the person posting the photograph actually did take it. It's not that this can't be done, but if you have to go through a process everytime a photograph stood out as being a good one, you can imagine how much of a hassle that would be.
I believe there will be one way or another of resolving this problem to a large extent in the future, it's still early days at steemit. :)
