WILD & STRANGE CONTEST SEASON X ROUND 1 - PHOTO

in wildnstrange •  7 years ago  (edited)

You guys are amazing!


Honestly, I haven't seen a season of this contest end as well as the last one until we found our winner for the last season! Are you ready to be amazed? If not, skip over this incredible (in a wild & strange sort of way) video!

@chrisroberts wins with the help of his wife, @carrieallen!

CONGRATULATIONS MAN!


This is a contest that people can jump in at any time. In each round we build on the previous, but this is the Round 1.

Here is the progression that this contest follows.


ROUND 1 = PHOTO – Take a photo to enter.


ROUND 2 = ART – Use winning photo from Round 1 to make a piece of art.


ROUND 3 = MEME – Use winning art from Round 2 to make a meme.


ROUND 4 = POETRY – Use winning meme from Round 3 to make a poem.


ROUND 5 = SONG – Use winning poem from Round 4 to make an original song.


For those of you who are unfamiliar with this contest, it is really quite an incredible concept. When a season starts, people submit photos and then each round builds upon the the previous rounds. Eventually, we wind up with a song at the end.

SEASON X!

For Season X Round 1, we will begin with the basic concept of "steemians." Here's what I'm looking for: a photo of at least steemian with the STEEM logo in the photo (not added digitally). It can be a group of steemians or just one, but as long as they have an account and show a steemit logo in the photo, it'll count.


The STEEM Logo


A very talented group of selfie-taking steemians have been hard at work in my Daily Selfie Challenge and this would be a great chance for them to show off their skills too!

To enter, take a photo of at least one steemian with the STEEM logo in it.. It can be a selfie, a photo of someone else, or one someone takes of you. Get creative and have fun, and check out the official rules below.

Here are the rules for Season X Round 1:


  • Take an original photo of at least one steemian and a steemit logo..
  • The winning photo will be used as the inspiration for artwork in the next round, so you may want to keep that in mind.
  • Enter original work and provide your entry in a reply to this post.
  • You can still make a post out of your entry, but your post does not count as an entry, only your reply.
  • Keep everything kid-friendly and G rated.
  • You must enter by midnight this Sunday (CST) in order for your entry to be considered valid.
  • By entering, you are giving me full permission to use your entry however I wish.

Photographers and other people with phones, cameras and such, now is your chance to have some fun, show off your skills, and possibly earn some SBD in the process!



The winning entry will receive all liquid STEEM/SBD from this post's payout!

Until next time…

Don’t waste your time online, invest it with steemit.com

So... I MAY make a post with the other shots from this... photo shoot. 😆 There are some gems and the deer were all up in our business. They were RIGHT behind Chris when he took this.... I went with the Yosemite Sam look. LOL!

The one that @chrisroberts is entering is way cooler, I think. Props to the photographer... 😁

Here is my entry. That's me. 😍

If you look closely... I'm hovering in the seated position.😲

The toilet in the background gives a plus 👍

Hehe hoping

Bwhahaha! Bathroom selfie at it's best.

😁

I like it. Technically, this one would probably be second place.

Hihi i would be glad anyway it gets recognized :)

📷 Heres My Entry I Just took this photo tonight at work ! : Its The First Time I entered a B&W Photo for the first round ! The STEEM logo is right here in @papa-peppers contest post , with the Round 1 Contest Details !! LOL! 😂
I did a promotional post , heres the link : https://steemit.com/wildnstrange/@karenmckersie/papa-peppers-wild-n-strange-contest-season-x-round-1-my-b-and-w-entry


There's my entry! Probably one of the same deer from my combination photography entry. They come around every day.

You guys have some good stuff but we have a photo shoot planned for tomorrow that will (hopefully) give you a run for your cryptos!

Ah well we'll keep you waiting a bit longer .... we got stuck in a community meeting today! Tomorrow its off to the farm with our ready made props for the dream back drops!

Ready made props, you say?... Interesting.... intersting....

The last time I entered this contest y'all gave me the nickname The Ninja of Steem. Let's see what y'all come up with on this.

I ran out of day light outside so I had to resort to indoor pictures. Here's the gif to go with.
20171119_175416-ANIMATION.gif

LOL! Awesome.

Are you wearing an egg beater/whisk on your head? ...

No. It's a banana hammock. It's reminiscent of the cerebro helmet that Professor X wears in X-Men and the Steemit Silver Round fit the end perfectly.

I'm gonna need a pic of the 'banana hammock' at a different angle...

Cause... um... well, google those words together and see what you get...🙃

IMG_20171120_190910315.jpg

Lol! That is DEFINITELY not what Google thinks a 'banana hammock' is ....

Or what I remember from college...

Congrats by the way! The rest of the challenge shall be amazing! And all because of you. 😃

Wow! Thank you so much! I couldn't have done it without all the other #wildnstrange winners. The song is by @fishyculture

By the way, this shoutout is going to put me over 500 followers! Woohoo! Thanks @papa-pepper for everything. Keep up the good work!

PS: There's a typo in @carrieallen's tag in the post above. ;)

I AM YOUR 500TH! I just went and realized I hadn't followed yet! ITS ME ITS ME! IM SOMEBODY NOW!

Lol! I'm gonna send you a prize.... on his behalf! Or make him send you something. LOL!

You guys are so fun.

Are you in Steemit.chat or Discord?

Both now! I do discord from my phone and steemit.chat from my computer. Im a pretty disorganized chatter truthfully...

Lol! It'll get better. I mostly just want it so I can get your mailing address.

Same name?

Ah! Im so eager to be mailed something!! Its possible! We have the technology (mules)!!!

I think it is fixed now. Thanks!

Truly impressive work on that video!! Congratulations and well deserved!!

Thank you! We find spending time on Steemit pretty rewarding and SUPER fun!

I have played that song for a couple friends, one a professional musician. She was laughing so hard at the end there were tears rolling down her face. :)

Awesome! @chrisroberts is pretty excited to be creating more... and all because of Steemit. 😍

20171114_094511.jpg

Does this work?

Fully entered!

Congratulations @chrisroberts and @carrieallen! 👏👏👏

Yay! He was SO excited this morning. 😍

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

Dare I????????? That was a fabulous video, so funny, but very catchy too! Congratulations @carrieallen and @chrisroberts! Well done you two!👏👏👏

Thank you! I'm just there for effect. He did most of the work. 😉

BRAVO!!! Chris and Carrie!!! I followed Chris, but Carrie's link didn't exist. Is it a typo? Anyway, congratulations!!!

Updated, @carrieallen should work.

Woo hooo, success!

Entered!

thank you

thumbs-up.jpg

how to enter this contest.
is it enough to paste the photo in this comment alone ... ??

Yup. No post needed. Just take a picture with a Steemian AND the Steem logo. You cannot photoshop tthe logo in after you take it. Then put it in the comments here.

Good luck!

Thank you

wow!!! that's amazing.

I'm going to participate

Keep it going. Good challenge and an interesting way to support the platform.

I think I will just have to give this one a shot.....not so sure about the song thing at the end tho......lol

awesome, i'm gonna finally get in on one of these!

Nice work bro. first time i came to know about this event. Season X i am thinking to participate . Thanks for sharing

I presume the old logo is acceptable?
THANK YOU again, @papapepper. I write satire songs, have done it my entire life. I do some "Al Yankovich" style stuff, using popular songs, but I usually just write my silly song myself. @longsilver and I are amused, and then it goes into obscurity. This is like my 15 minutes of songwriter fame, and I am DEEPLY amused!

That's the STEEM (cryptocurrency) logo. The new one is specific to STEEMIT (the platform). So, technically, though confusing, they are both still good. 😀

Thank you so much for all the compliments and kind words. We were worried he wouldn't have time to enter, but I made him do it last minute. 😉 He was already singing the tune in his head the day he read your poem... The rest was pretty easy (for him). 😍

Your poem made the story-telling super fun!

though we can not use the steemit logo without permission first. :( at least the steem logo is free to use without permission

Interesting. I did not know that. How very strange. Guess everyone wants their little piece. 😉

Luckily, for whoever created the Steemit one (and won't freely share), most like the STEEM logo anyway. 😏

When the logo went live steemitblog made an announcement about it. I was a little bummed but then I realized that I just have to change a little how I use my promotional stuff I have had made. Just changing of a few words and it is golden, though I am bummed we can't use it for site recognition.

Do you know the creator? And what their reasoning is for NOT wanting people to ... you know SEE it? Lol! Sometimes I just don't understand folks.

That little circle, if 'they' want it to be known, has to be shared... I guess they are still of the mentality that there isn't enough for everyone. #weird

Thanks for the info. I'll stick to the STEEM logo from now on. 😀

I follow what the team and creators posts, but I don't really know them. Just know who they are. Here it the post about it new logo.
https://steemit.com/logo/@steemitblog/the-new-steemit-logo-is-here

Thank you! 😍

Ah, did not know that, thanks!

We all have to look after each other.

Right, this logo:

Now your song will live on this time.

Congratulations @chrisroberts and @carrieallen, the video is very funny but it must not have been easy to create it, it is really a contest that demands a lot of effort, you deserved to be the winners!!!

Thank you so much! It wasn't too much trouble for us, as we already have many of the 'skills' needed. But, really @chrisroberts did most of the work. 😍

Hello @papa-pepper, Here is my photo entry. Trust me, the real challenge to this contest was drawing the logo on in a mirror!

IMG_20171114_125000472.jpg

You're entered!

My kid is so funny. I told him I wanted to take a photo of him holding the Steem logo and he agreed. He was trying to make himself wild and strange looking. I love this kid. And he is a steemian @ultrawing and if I win we are splitting it.
His sign he is holding explains it all. He is home schooled and I have assigned him to post Monday-Friday as part of his school assignment. He has been doing game reviews mostly. But I see Steemit being a great place for educational things. Including assignments. Learn it, Steemit, Earn. No better place to be then Steemit.

Very cool!

This post was very informative thank you for sharing
you have my upvote
@mannyfig1956

@papa-pepper i wanna take part of the season x but i have just 2 little questions. 1. a photo of at least steemian with the STEEM logo in the photo not added digitally? with this you mean that the steem logo can't be a printed out paper with the username written beneath it? 2. Enter original work and provide your entry in a reply to this post? Do i have to just post the picture then reply on it original work and then comment the link of that post in this post?

Digitally added means taking the photo, and then photo-shopping a logo into it. You can print a logo for the contest. To enter, you add your image in a comment here.

thank you @papa-pepper

That hand in the foreground is also a steemian, they just have not begun posting yet!

I made a related post about the pic this morning:

LOL! I love it!

Thanks for sharing, enjoy the vote!

Wow!Excellent photography.You are really creative photographer. Please stay with photography. how the beautiful photo is! Its very colorful also.

There wasn't any photography in this post....

Bwhahahaha! 😏

...(mic drop)...exit stage left.

Fascinating! Do you think its an automated response based on the tag usage?

Reviewing his comments I would say that it was, and he turned it off 6 days ago. He seems to have had automation in other tags as well! Computers are so interesting.

......notice the author of the book

LOL! I love it. THanks!

Im not much of a contest guy these days but i like the photo challenge.
So basically i have to take a "wild and strange" photo with a created steemit logo?
Like spray paint a cow with Steemit logo and ride it???
(Feel free to take my idea anyone, i dont know any cows that would be cool with me doing that)
I have other ideas ;)

LOL!

I don't know any cows that would be cool with me doing that.

Awesome.

The only rule first round is that the Steem logo is IN the picture when it's taken. When we did it before (the winning pic from first round last time) @chrisroberts simply drew and colored the logo and we taped it to his shirt.

Good luck! It's super fun!
May you find the most perfect and willing cow.🐄

Like spray paint a cow with Steemit logo and ride it???

Anything along those lines will work!

Bwhahaha! But you MUST get the cow's permission first. A simply 'moo' will do. 🤣
