worldwildflora (48) in contest • 7 years ago (edited)

This is the beginning of a new project on Steem. A hybrid project: both photographic and scientific.

The contest

Starting from today - 1st of June - I will organize a weekly contest. It will be named WORLD WILD FLORA.

The prize: 3 SBD + 50% of @worldwildflora SBD earnings in the week of the contest.

Rules

The article in the contest must contain:

an original photography of a single wild plant, (you can add multiple photos but only from the same species)
the Latin, English and the local name of the plant
a short scientific description
if the plant falls under the medicinal or edible category, you can describe how it is used
a minimal description of the photography (camera, lens, exposure, iso etc.)
date and place where the photo was taken
references for the information presented in your article.
one of the hashtags used must be #worldwildfora.
vote for the last post of @worldwildflora (starting with this post and after that the post with the winner of the contest)
comment in the last article of @worldwildflora with the link to your post.

The winner will be announced each Sunday and the prize will be paid on Monday.

Funding

The contest will be sponsored by @rbm and his friends.

25% of earnings will be returned proportionally to delegators as incentive.

For those who want to delegate SP to this project, you have some predefined links below.
10 SP | 20 SP | 50 SP | 100 SP | 200 SP | 500 SP

Good luck to the participants!

Seems like an excellent idea--art and science: they really aren't that far apart. Nice to wed them in one blog. I'll be looking for beautiful pictures. Unfortunately, I'm not a very good photographer, so I won't be entering.

Thank you ! I understand that you aren't "a very good photographer" but maybe you are a good one and a very good botanist. We need scientific information too.

I hope you will get a lot of exposure with this project.
I don't know if SteemSTEM will be interested but if the project grows I am curious if they will finance these kinds of projects. I wish you good luck!

This contest is a wonderful idea. Apart from learning about the wonderful world of plants, we can share useful remedies. 🙂

I really hope you will got some participants, it is pretty hard to move people. Maybe promise guaranteed upvotes also for everybody who participates, or surprise prizes, who knows?

Anyway, I will leave here some SP also, I hope it will help :D

Thanks a lot, @mejustandrew ! I know it is hard to move people but I'm not an adept of reward without any conditions. If this project starts well it will be many prizes for well-written articles.
