An Attempt at Increasing Drone Related Photography and VideosteemCreated with Sketch.

As far as I can tell, there isn't a top trending tag for drones. This is an attempt, by @jocqua, to fix that.

I am, for all intents and purposes, a brand spanking new Steemit user. Although I've had an account since December 2017, during the great crypto craze, I only recently started using the platform. I still have much to learn. As a photographer and drone pilot I'm looking for more ways to get paid for my craft. Thus far I've come across curator accounts such as @photofeed and @pixresteemer. And they're great! I personally do not know anyone affiliated with these accounts nor have I had a chance to interact with them. Yet. But seeing these accounts immediately sparked new questions in my mind.

Where is the drone curator account? Why aren't there any trending drone tags?

I have a decent following on Instagram. Nothing too crazy, especially when compared to its top performers. But I spend enough time on that app, growing my following, to know there's a TON of drone pilots out there. The tags for #drone and #drones do exist on steemit but it's not a top tag. #dronefeed is literally not even a thing.

I think it should be.

Drones have opened up an entirely new world for photographers. Something that once took hiring a helicopter pilot or flying in a plane is now accessible to, well, everyone. Videographers and photographers alike can now travel anywhere in the world with a drone that fits inside their backpack. I've flown in some of the most remarkable places in the world and captured new perspectives from heights I was previously never able to reach. It's time for drones to be a bigger part of the @steemit community.

So there it is. That's my pitch. That's the task I've decided to take on.

Here are the rules:

  1. If you are a drone pilot, follow this account. I will follow you back.
  2. Use the tag #dronefeed.
  3. I will resteem original, high quality, drone content.

That's it! But I do have one more request. Help! Engage with me. Give me suggestions. Comment with tips and links and resources and ideas. Like I said, I'm very new at this. I'm just learning everything that steemit has to offer. I'm a big believer in crypto currency and I feel like steemit is a genius idea. We can grow this thing together, both #dronefeed and #steemit. I'd like to be a part of the growth instead of sitting on the sidelines and HODLing until I die.

I'm open to your feedback and would love it if you could comment below. If you'd like to contact me outside of steemit you can DM me via Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jocquasrepublic/

P.S. the attached photo was taken by me with the DJI Mavic Pro in Gisborne, New Zealand.
