Hello Fellow Steemians,
I have been taking a break from posting and doing new shoots for a couple of weeks. I just got really burned out and I'm putting photography on the back burner for now. It's just too much work for too little pay, and I can't really support myself off it even with Steemit as it's not consistent.
Also, after almost a year on here putting out quality work, I never really got the whale support I needed to do Steemit full time and unless you have that it's hard because unlike other things I can be doing with my time which will build up a library of work and create passive income and residual on going income. Sadly Steemit only pays one payout and unless I'm making $100 -$300 a post it's not going to build up an income that I can depend on, especially with price fluctuations in the price of Steem.
But I'll still post as often as I can when I shoot or have time to retouch... But most of my time is going into new online businesses, self-improvement and fixing my life. I wish things could have been different on here but it is what it is.
This is another shot from the series I shot with the with the very Beautiful Nikola Weiterova IFBB Bikini Fitness competitor at the Mansion shoot I did recently. Quite a bit of work went into this image to change out the background, so it looks l like she's near the Ocean as opposed to in a desert community.
The location was at The Mansion Shoot I spoke about in this post https://steemit.com/photography/@nspart/nspart-photoshoot-at-usd12-000-000-dollar-home-with-5-models-nsfw-some-mild-nudity.

What Goes In To My Work/Art:
For those that don't know, I spend a lot of time on all of my photos, unlike camera phone pictures, or quick snap shots. For any shoot there is model selection, planning, equipment setup, the shoot which is usually several hours where I shoot several hundred photos, then there is equipment tear down, choosing the best images which takes a couple of hours, color grading/correction, and then I spend sometimes an hour or two on a single image retouching and creating the final look, then resizing and watermarking for the web, even my Polaroids have to be scanned in, cropped, have the dust removed, resized and watermarked, so to the people that think I'm just posting a pic or two they are not seeing all of the work that goes into that picture they are looking at.
With advanced photo-manipulation and composites that can add many more hours of work. And what also makes these images possible is the years I have spent learning my craft, the $10,000+ in equipment + the Studio I was paying for that sadly I no longer have, and the model and Makeup Artist (when I use one) are either paid or get additional pictures which means more work for me, none of this is cheap or free it's a lot of work that I do because I love creating beautiful images.
I added this to my posts because it seems that people no longer value professional photography or understand what goes into it regarding, time, expense, etc... And some feel a camera phone picture of a ham sandwich or a selfie has equal value regardless of the difference in production time and cost. Almost every professional photographer I know has been adversely affected by the devaluation of professional photography due to mass proliferation of camera phones and the perception that all photos are created equally, so I try my best to educate people on what goes into what we do.

Good to see that you're back @nspart!
It's difficult to make it big on and live off of steemit, maybe you will be able to do it in the near future.
Very good
Çok Güzel Çalışma Olmuş
Tebrik Ederim
Başarıların Devamını Dilerim
I can see you post rarely, and that is a shame because i like your photography. I believe you have an account on BeScouted we have built it on Steem blockchain, you might try uploading a photo or two there to see how it goes. Just keep in mind, everything you post on BeScouted cross posts on your steemit blog too. David
