I think most people will follow wherever their friends go.
I first shared photos on a site called Ringo. Then everyone left Ringo to go to Facebook and only the photography enthusiasts remained on Ringo. Ringo closed and some of my friends moved to Flickr, so I followed and made new friends. I wouldn't leave Flickr while they all remained there, but if they all migrated to a new site, I'd follow. I guess it depends how people use the site, but from my experience the best part of any 'social' site is the people you meet and share with. That is more important than the format.
I also use Facebook and tried Google+ but none of my friends are there, so why would I stay?
I do like the Google+ albums (Is it what used to be Picasa?) I think they are superior to the Facebook albums.
