Though known as a potential waster of time, the social networking site, Facebook does have its benefits. In my case, the presence of my photos on Facebook and the subsequent positive feedback from from persons who saw them has really been the reason why I was encouraged to actively promote my photography.

It has become increasingly apparent to me, that if I am going to call myself a photographer and become more successful as one, I'm going to have to put myself out there in the public eye and make more people know who I am.

You see, most photographers have several lenses that they use interchangeably to take their shots. I too have several lenses, but I take 95% of my photos with one, my sigma 17-70mm. Unfortunately for me, I clumsily dropped both my camera and lens totally busting up the lens which bore the brunt of the fall.
