'The Midflight'
A bird is caught in the midflight while the whole flock peacefully rests. This inspires me to think about how the importance of flying while the others rest. People are always so much influenced by the situations around them that they often forget that every cloud has a golden rim. The steem is low? So what? Fly on! We are here to share ideas, experiences, images, sounds, videos and most of all enjoy each other's company. The rest is just the icing on a cake. Don't sit and idle, do your stuff, make friends, enjoy what you do. Always look on the bright side of life.
What is interesting about this photograph is the various fields of contrast. The top of the image has very low contrast, as I taken with a partial low con filter (which wasn't the case) while the bottom part has quite a large difference in the tonality. The pigeon in midflight is caught with appropriate background behind it. Pigeon's organic curves counter the straight linearity of the boards. Some little red in the bottom left nicely livens up the image. The amount of birds caught in a single shot in all sorts of places, up, down, sideways is quite impressive.
Worry not, live your lives, share and have fun. We are here to be happy. Or, as I told my friends, today:
STEEM WILL RISE AGAIN! :)
It always does.
Enjoy! :)

I've asked you before @introvert-dime why you vote up all your own replies at basically full strength all the time, but the post itself at VERY low power (around 7% usually it seems) and here is the deal.
It is considered pretty scammy here to do that.
And you have been doing it a long time and it is time to address this poor behaviour.
Once in awhile is fine. Not all day, every day for weeks on end.
That is garbage behaviour here.
You seem to pick high profile posts, or users to do this on always and then vote your comments to the top increasing your visibility and you do this all day long, every day, all the time.
That is frowned upon here, not like you need someone to tell you this behaviour is scammy and poor.
I think I might start pasting this reply into your scammy replies to people, since your replies are all self-voted to the top for VISIBILITY. ALL THE TIME.
-- here is the proof just for today , the last few mins, on SteemD.com which I encourage everyone to check out on the blockchain.

Great photography. Great to see that Steemit is full of people who got talents like you. Unlike other social media with full of BS full of post.

I’ve urged friends of mine to do the same @velimir. I discovered Steemit in the summer of 2016 and I fell in love with the philosophy [...the idea of decentralized networks, especially social networks was new to me entirely] even more than the money and rewards. When STEEM crashed down to $0.08 I just kept posting every day. Payouts were in STEEM, which I didn’t realize then, but when it bounced back I had made $30K for a site I’d never invested fiat in to at all. Just sweat equity. These lows are temporary. I love the symbolism in the image you shared.

Success is always achieved with the process after going through various obstacles. so do not be afraid to fail, because failure is also a learning process.
Human capabilities will also increase. Actually the word fail is only the property of people who stop trying, stop innovating, stop doing. In addition to the courage of the first capital to achieve success, there are other things that are very important also to know that is always positive thinking, always optimistic will. Positive and optimistic thinking can be achieved by always interacting with people who are mentor positive and optimistic in doing many things, as well as with the same vision community.
Because it can drain positive energy. Renowned psychologist William James has unhesitantly said, my largest generation study is that man can change his life by changing his attitude. The point is that attitude is a small thing that can make a big change in one's life. Behind the change of attitude there is always a keyword that is belief. Begin by having the belief that success, success, anxiety, are all caused by the inner factor of the person. The belief that the person who created it is actually his heart and mind. Other external factors do not really reflect the human person. But it is the heart and the inner mind that identify it. That's why blaming the outside factor is not wise. Beliefs like this will change the attitude of men to be a winner. Humans are beings who have the gift of physical perfection, emotional intelligence and spiritual intelligence.
With his intelligence, he is able to manage his heart and mind. Even able to understand how the thinking process itself. Many people are less aware of this, do not know, pretend not to know, or even do not want to know that they have the ability to manage their hearts and minds. So they never realize that they have become slaves or servants of their own hearts and minds. Instead of directing his heart and mind, he is controlled by his own heart and mind for the rest of his life. So where are the choices you choose, be realistic, logical. You can not select a path that you do not think you can run. Finally, you will find failure and despair, before reaching that goal.

Yes!!.... You are right. In life we tend to lose interest when things turn the way we never expected. My friend who is new in steemit said he can not continue, because he think SBD is in shit. I was marveled at his understanding about steemit. He was there just to earn and nothing more. Forgetting that adding value to people's life and making friends is the primary aim of steemit.com. Let do the fly, keep on moving and making steemit a happy the will accomodate everyone ... Let's not unplug our chargers because of the fall of SBD, Lets do the needful and keep doing it. SBD will rise . I know that .

I respect you for your optimism. You set an excellent example of the right attitude to life.
In fact, we are all in the same boat here. I read in the comments below (or above, I do not know where my comment will be after the publication) that steemit are abandoned by people who are depleted by the fall in the cost of the SBD. In this situation, we can say the following: "fewer people on the ship - more space for other participants in the voyage and it's easier to sail the ship." That is, in such a situation we can see the true face of some people. It's good.
For me, steemit is a place where I feel useful. Here I met many excellent people (you are one of them) and here I can spend time with benefit. I like to support, communicate with other users, get useful information. This is what the steemit says.
Storm overboard will sooner or later pass. Only the most united and strong "sailors" remain in the cryptomir. Therefore, you are right. We need to enjoy every moment and not think about the bad. Thank you
Goodnight

I really agree with this sentence, because it really motivates me. Many of my friends leaving the steemit when they know the price of steem is very low. I am always give motivate all of the time to keep on creating content, sharing stories, beautiful art, having fun with games but they do not care. I'm sure one day when steem rises they will regret it. Regret always comes in the end. Regards,

Hola @velimir
Ella no ha llegado tarde. Simplemente abandono el nido cuando aseguró que los polluelos estaban listos para quedar solos. Ahora llega al lugar de donde seguro saldrá con algo para regurgitar y alimentarlos.
Mientras existen personas que solo viven para ellas; hay otras que viven para los demás.
La fotografía; sus contrastes y tonalidades son exactos a como percibimos el entorno................... Para unos más claro que para otros.
Saludos
