Photo contest - move me with your photos and win SBI shares

zen-art (68) in contest • 6 years ago (edited)

Some people are writers and some are painters.
Some people dance and some sing.
All people have an artist hidden inside.
I want you to show me yours.

I have decided to make my Sundays even better and I will make them better by using you. Every Sunday, there will be another contest for you to participate in. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is "to move me".

FOR MOVING ME WITH YOUR LOVELY WORDS!

My Sunday was so much better because of all of you and all your work that was amazing, captivating and moving. Winners and their work are in the video below. Congratulations!

Prizes are sent:

Check out the posts from the winners and all entries in the comments of the previous contest HERE

To move me means to capture all my attention, remove me from this world and lift me up to a higher place of vibration. I want to get the chills. I want to close my eyes and bask in the beauty that you have brought me. Do you know me? Do you know what I strongly believe the meaning of life is? Put a smile on my face, fill me up with ecstasy and that feeling of pure enjoyment. Make me produce the sound of om, mmm, and aaaa. Show me what pleasure is. Present me with the ultimate gift, a transformation to another state of being. Make me raise my hands or tilt my spine. Toss me into that river of emotion and make me experience the ultimate freedom. Allow me to feel the connection with your energy pattern.

Move me...
Show me your inner self,
your wild and free spirit.
Show me your higher self,
your nature self,
and make me feel it.
Show me your earth self,
your passion, and soul.
Show me your universe self,
your hidden self,
and discover yourself whole.
Move me...

This contest starts on Sunday 16.09.2018. at 21:40 and ends on Sunday 23.09.2018. at 21:40. I am looking forward to all your entries and am sure that they will all be wonderful. Plagiarism is not allowed, be creative, relax and get into your zone because only original works are allowed. There is no limit to your submissions, you can have 1 or 10 photos to submit. Your style is your own and I will respect it as such. You can use editing and effects or not, it is all up to your own personal preference.

All prizes are SBI shares. If you do not know what that is, check out the profile @steembasicincome. You can find even more contests in their latest post: Contests for your weekend. In short, SBI stands for steem basic income and by having shares you are having upvotes from them for life. The more shares, the bigger upvote you have.

1st PRIZE - 3SBI

2nd PRIZE - 2SBI

3rd PRIZE - 1SBI

Additional:

EVERYTHING from this post-payout will be used for additional prizes in the following way; payout will be divided by 2. One half will be split 3 ways and used for additional prizes for the first 3 winners. The other half will be split among additional winners. If needed, I will round up the numbers to a bigger value. If the payout is to low for this (lower than 5 steem), the entire payout will go to additional winners and not to the first 3.

EXAMPLE 1: Post-payout is 7 steem. 7/2 = 3.5 One half of 7 is divided by 3: 3.5/3=1.16666. This means that the first prize will now be 4, second 3 and the third 2. The other half of 7 is added with the rest from the first half: 3.5+0.5=4 and there will be 4 more winners receiving 1 SBI.

Bigger payout means more winners and bigger prizes!

I am the only judge of this contest and I will decide who the winners are based on how much their entries moved me. To know what I mean by "moved me" read the part of this post that explains it titled "What is move me contest?"

Good luck everyone,
KEEP YOUR SMILE ON!

Damn. I forgot all about the contest. I need to go look and see if I have any pictures that would be moving enough to enter if it isn't to late. I don't enter many contests and the ones that I do enter are ones that I can do the moment I spot them in most cases.

Hi, @zen-art,

Please forgive my greatly delayed response.

I just discovered your post late this evening, and I'm here to say "Thank you!" for selecting my poem for 2nd place. This is an honor, and I really enjoyed listening to you read the winning entries.

I am so glad that I was able to move you. :)
