How do I get my photos seen on Glass?
Glass is a community, not a broadcast channel. The best way to get your photos seen is to be an active part of it: the attention you give other photographers is what brings attention back to your work.
There are no ads and no engagement algorithms on Glass, so there's no system to game. What works is participation:
- Follow photographers whose work inspires you. Your feed is chronological, so the time you spend finding people pays off every day, and many will look at your work in return.
- Leave encouraging and helpful comments. A thoughtful comment on someone's photo is the most reliable way to start a connection.
- Appreciate photos and comments that resonate with you.
- Post work you love, and add up to three categories during upload so it appears in category feeds.
- Take part in the Monthly Category. The team publishes a curated Highlight from each month's theme.
- Keep your EXIF intact so your photos appear in camera and lens feeds.
Members also come across your work through Explore, photo search, Series, and equipment feeds. Curation notices the same thing participation earns: photographers who show up consistently and engage with others.
