Excited to say that I have two auctions started on some landscape photography NFTs over on Foundation. They are currently sitting above the reserve at 2ETH each. As a long term Hive believer (been investing time and money in this platform for over 3 years) I would have loved to have seen Hive be the home of landscape NFTs community. It simply makes sense with such a fast feeless blockchain. But there has been almost no promotion of Lensy.io to bring any collectors over or to bring the photography community there. IMO even the creation of Lensy.io itself was a segregation of photographers from he main https://nftshowroom.com/ platform and is a drawback. In the invite only platforms like Foundation the photography sits side by side with digital art and works well with the lines between digital art and photography becoming very blurred (as they should in art); even SuperRare is accepting photographers now.
Yes I know; this is a distributed headless blockchain with no central owners. I could have stepped up and developed something myself, and done the marketing. But I am predominantly a photographer and not a developer. And I have seen zero attempt at engagement between the teams behind Lensy.io/NFTShowroom.com and the photography community on Hive to get them involved. Until then people will go with their photography NFTs to where the community and their work is valued.
