Show me your greenest photo and win SBI

in photography •  6 years ago  (edited)

Hi there my Steemit friends and followers!

I feel like hosting another photo contest today and looking at the beautifully green numbers that Steem keeps putting out, I decided to pick green as the theme of the contest.

The greener your photo will be, the higher chance of winning some SBI you will stand because I would like to see some of the very greenest shots you have :)

This is one of the greenest photos I have. I took it during a rainforest canopy tour in Costa Rica.


If you want to join this contest, put your entry in the comment section below. You will have 3 days to submit your photos until Thursday when I will pick 3 winners (or possibly 5 if we happen to get a really high number of great entries) who will receive 1 SBI share each from me :)

Rules are simple:

1) Only 1 entry per person
2) Only your own photos
3) Add a short description to the photo

I am looking forward to checking your submissions :) Have a wonderful green Monday and let´s hope Steem will keep this great momentum!

Díky za účast, hezká fotka :)

Cool contest! I love green too. :) Here's a photo with only green in it:

I shot this in the tropical Spice Garden of Penang, Malaysia. It's called Sweet Prayer Plant, native to western part of Africa, and is now also commonly seen in tropical Asia. Its large papery green leaves are popular for decoration purpose, as well as for wrapping and boiling food. Local people also use them as weaving materials, building materials, and for roofing. Plus it’s a natural source of thaumatin, a low-calorie sweetener and flavor modifier protein. Its leaf sap can also be used as sedative and as antidote against venoms, stings, and bites.

Btw, I'm hosting a Cross-culture Challenge, feel free to join Petr. You and Lil must have a lot to share about this topic! =)

Thank you for this amazing entry Donica! :) I will definitely check out that challenge, sounds like something we can join hehe :))


This probably won't have the most green, but the color is vibrant and full of new life. It was in the Spring and the new growth was lively and jumped out at me.

Beautiful close-up Denise! Congratulation on the win :))

Well-deserved win Denise :) You can see the other winners here https://steemit.com/photography/@phortun/green-photo-contest-winner-announcement Thanks for participation, it was a pleasure to have you competing in my contest! :)

Thank you so much for running these contests! They are a lot of fun and create a great atmosphere. I reposted both of them for more visibility. Not that you need more, you have plenty! ;))

🎁 Hi @phortun! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!

@dswigle wrote lately about: Macro Thursday Feel free to follow @dswigle if you like it :)

Sending tips with @tipU - how to guide :)

Wow, what a beautiful shot. Love this vibrant green!

This is a great idea! My contribution: from a very green country (Sri Lanka), a very green fellow: a common green forest lizard (Calotes calotes). I've found him during a hike near Ella, a little town in the mountains, and almost missed it! Given their colour and the surroundings, they can go unnoticed pretty easily!

Look at this green cutie! I love lizards :) Congratulation on the win :))

I love lizards :)

Same here! Thank you again for hosting the giveaway!

Congratulations on the win! I love the stripes on this guy! He is kind of cute too!

Thank you! It was great spotting him, if it weren't for a friend I would have missed him completely.

Happy Accidents is usually the way I go. :))

Great idea, @phortun
Thank you for an interesting contest.

Here are my photos.

And let this green bull bring good luck to everyone :-)

P. S. I think need to write a post, it seems I overdone :-)
And if only 1 photo, here it is from the Sochi arboretum.
There was last summer.

Thanks for participation @singa! Actually, you were supposed to submit just one photo but I love them both :)

For me it is the greenest photo from last year. It is the month of may and everything around is buried in bright and fresh greenery. It's so cool to see how nature woke up and the feeling of fresh leaves and grass aromas, the hot sun makes everything even brighter and so nice to know that everything is still ahead :)

Tohle je nejzelenější foto, jaké jsem našel ve svém archivu. Foceno na jaře roku 2018 nedaleko Českých Budějovic.

Krása české přírody. Úplně z toho na mě dýchl domov :) Díky za účast Bucíku, moc pěkná fotka ;)

Svět je svět a doma je doma ;-)

Challenge Accepted, my friend!

This is the Cannyon Itaimbezinho near the city of Cambara do Sul in southern Brazil. The whole cannyon complex is called Park Aparados da Serra and features several cannyons with a great view from the coast kilometers away.

A giraffe hiding behind the trees at Chobe national Park in Botswana Africa. It was very green out there.

Just like cut out from a National Geographic video :) Amazing. Congratulation on the win :))

Cheers 😊 was amazing to see!

Congratulations on the win! I was so jealous when I saw the giraffe! What a spectacular shot!

Thank you very much. It was amazing to see them in the wild

Thank you for the opportunity to participate to my first contest on steemit! I took this picture last summer, in the northern part of Romania. That was the view from the house where I've stayed for a weekend. It was a wonderful image to wake up to.

Very good entry for your first contest! I love this shot. So much greenery. Welcome to Steemit Mara! :)

Při průzkumu vlhkého podzemí občas vylezeme na světlo. Nejsme v džungli, ale v malém lomu nedaleko Malé Ameriky ;-)
Na fotce není cestovatel Emil Holub, ale můj kamarád, který se před chvílí vynořil ze štol :-)

Zajímavá fotka a velmi originální popisek :D Díky za obojí :)

Není zač :-) Jj, byla to unikátní situace ;-)

It is this favorite collection by me.
5th World Forest Conference - Issued in 1960.
I like trees,
But modern people are always cutting down trees.
So I saw the stamp and bought him before many years ago.
It has 3 small tickets.
The face value is 1 yuan and 2 yuan and 3 yuan.
I like the 1 yuan landscape and flying birds flying in the sky.
Also like the 2 yuan sika deer in the forest foraging.
I don't like the 3 yuan logging -
his paintings say that the forest is can used reasonably,
that is to say,
in the 3 yuan picture, the picture is a moderate development of the forest, and the meeting is mainly to discuss the forest resources of various countries. How to develop and help each other,
For example, if everyone asks to keep the forest as much as possible, then other countries must give them assistance, etc., but I don’t like ther practice.
Because advanced countries always ask backward countries not to Felling forests, but they are severely cut down. It should be that everyone is forbidden to Felling forests, unless growth forests can reach equilibrium.

Thanks for participation. Interesting entry. Hopefully, we will start planting more trees than we are cutting.

Here is my Green Submission :) GL everyone!

Excellent capture! Thanks for joining my contest :)

Thank you for having it !

I have many full frame greenest photos but all are in my hard drive at home. This one was in my phone since long time.
It was clicked in last year while I was cycling to Barot valley from Bir-Biling. This is Badagran village and Farmers are almost ready to pick up the fresh and organic cabbage.

Honestly, I wouldn´t expect cabbage to show up in this contest but it looks awesome! Thank you for participation :)

I like green color. With all respect to others I am saying that green is a color of life on our planet. Thank you.

This photo from my green collection. It's dificult to choose the best one cause they are all best. A choose this photo because of the emotions it gives me when I look at it. Soft green is a filing of a spring in a whinter time.

Nice shot! Thanks for entering my contest :)

Thank you!

My Greenest shot will always be of my beloved Costa Rica. This shot was captured with my DJI drone.

Screen Shot 2019-01-24 at 03.40.47.png

Breathtaking capture! So lush and wild. Pura Vida at its finest :) Congrats on the win!

The greenest photo


Honestly I'm not too big fan of a green color. But very often the nature is just green, so this or other way it happens to shot some green as well.
This is wide angle lens shot of a forest on the way to the coast of the Baltic Sea, Lithuania. The sun was almost at the horizon and very nicely shining through the trees, that actually had no other choice than to stop and make few first shots before actual series at the beach

Enjoy it!
