I'm having an awesome day, I put my sunrise shot on 500px which I don't use that much as I only put up my "bestest" shots & it's the first time one of my photos has got on the Popular Page......now that's a huge accomplishment for me as there are some amazing photogs including professionals on that site!
I know some 365ers also use 500px, I follow Amy Spada & Nadine Deens & I know they have already been on the PP there because they are amazing photogs but is there anybody else here who is also on 500px as I'd love to follow others?
Here's the shot that I'm very happy with, even more so now:
Okay thank you, that was my one boasting session for the year over with :)
PS I see that I didn't put my 500px url up so if anyone is interested, here it is: http://500px.com/sjodell
@sjodell congratulations! it's a great feeling! i post all my shots on both sites and interestingly, the shot of mine that made it to the popular page there, didn't do so well here. this is me: http://500px.com/KarenElizabeth
@jonesp@beadedgalaxy thanks guys, it's also a great site just different to 365 & thanks for replying, I'm now following both of you & look forward to checking out your shots :)
@sjodell YAY!! That's so cool, Sarah!! I have an account but don't use it... perhaps I should check it out again :) Although... I then think... omg I have so little extra time as it is right now with everything and 365.... hmmmm maybe I need to think about that a little more.
I have 500px, and agree the audience definitely has different taste! A lot of outstanding photographs on 500px (as well as 365, of course!) http://500px.com/amyamoeba101
@ozziehoffy I post some stuff to 500px but I can barely keep up with my "duties" here so dont really put all that (read any) time into following a lot of other people there.
@amyamoeba Totally agree. Much more of a community here.
@ozziehoffy@jonesp it is pretty time consuming with 365, flickr & 500px but I tend to catch up on 500px for only a few mins a day at work, 365 is a work/home project so more time goes into that :)
This is where it started for me so I like to kinda keep my roots and my feet on the ground... if that makes sense. Sarah, I have flickr too, but only one shot on there lol.
Wow Sarah... That's quite an amazing feeling to get on the popular page over there, isn't it? I've started following the other 365'ers as well. Like everyone else, I don't dedicate much time over there but I love seeing what's going on every once in a while.
I just joined this afternoon and uploaded a few of my favorites from this year that I had on hand. One of my photos went popular right away! Awesome! I thought about joining once before but didn't think my work was up to it... guess I fit in okay after all! http://500px.com/sara1roche
@aspada thanks Amy, yes it's an awesome feeling, I agree I only spend a few mins there just to see what's happening as there are some stunning shots to check out!
@suelaubscher thanks Sue, yeah I was really stoked when I got an email saying it was on there :)
@polarvrtx Congrats Sara that's wonderful & now you've got another follower on there in me :)
So, out of curiosity, I just signed up as well.... and, what do you know, the first photo I posted went 'popular'. Hmmm.... good job I'm not even slightly cynical... ;)
I'll have a look and add you.
