I only came across your account today!

You should stick around. It may take a little bit to get recognised and build up a following but it's much easier than trying to make it 'out there' from scratch. Bring some of your followers elsewhere onto Steemit as well!

Consider joining some of the photography contests that are being hosted here, mine is the Steemit Photo Challenge, there's also a Color Challenge, Portrait Contest and others. Have a look a round, network and leave comments. With your content I am certain that you will do well once people start to notice.

I'll be following!
