I was, however, encouraged by the responses, especially the explanations. It was evident that a lot of DSLR owners would keep [...]

I wanted to talk a little about a different kind of exposure for your photography… the kind that results in more people seeing your work. I have had a lot of people ask how to get their photos seen and many believe that simply posting photos to a site like Flickr is all they need to do.
