Engaged! C-Squared Readers' Choice Contest - FULL RULES
The @c-squared account will place a 12 Steem Bounty on this weekly contest post, published every Sunday.
How to claim the bounty
Bounty hunters (you the reader!) must leave a comment in reply to this post with a link to a post recently upvoted/resteemed by @c-squared (still in payout) and an explanation of why you liked this post.
PLEASE NOTE To be eligible for bounty payout, three criteria must be met:
- The comment must include a valid URL of a post recently upvoted/resteemed by @c-squared (still in payout at the time the comment is left).
- The comment must include a non-spammy/non-generic explanation of why you liked the linked post.
- A non-spammy/non-generic comment must be left in reply to the linked post as well.
The @c-squared account will upvote comment(s) that satisfy the above criteria, determining who gets the bounty (if multiple comments are upvoted by @c-squared the bounty will be split). The C-Squared admins will review all comment entries and the best comments will receive a larger % vote, thus receiving more of the bounty.
ONLY ONE COMMENT PER USER WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR BOUNTY You are welcome to leave as many comments below as you want to help highlight the awesome posts curated through @c-squared, but only your first comment will be eligible for bounty payout.
Spam commenters and users who are obviously copying existing comments in hope of upvote and bounty will be flagged.
Examples of comments that would be too spammy/generic to qualify for the contest (this is a non-exhaustive list): "I like this post"; "Nice post"; "Cool post"; "This post was my favorite", etc. What we are looking for is why you liked a post, what in specific you liked about it, how the post made you feel, and in general looking for thoughtful responses that prove you actually read the post and enjoyed it.
Engagement League Booster Prize
In the spirit of C-Squared's mission to encourage engagement on the Steem blockchain, we would like to encourage users to participate in @abh12345's League of Engagement.

I like this kind of publications very much, photography has a particular magic that transports you to places you've never seen, that's why I take delight in this image because it gives me the sensation of traveling the world without leaving home.
Very good, I loved it.

I love this review for being very complete and interesting even if the food was not the best. It's interesting to read a review that is not complimentary. And the place itself is fascinating. A lovely setting, games to play, a library, and an art gallery all in a restaurant.

I liked this post this week:
https://steemit.com/busy/@livinguktaiwan/the-lunch-or-the-view
I was not expecting the scenery from Taiwan, and do not know much about the country at all. This is a lot of the reason I like travel posts on steem. I find out about so many interesting places.
In this case the "easy" hike did not look that easy. The fact that a person can bring such a nice lunch to cook was quite a feat. I was very happy to read this interesting post and see the great photos today.

Dear @c-squared thank you for spreading awareness through this bounty. Found a post that I really like by @roinujx Dibujo a Grafito "Daenerys Targaryen"
The reason why I can appreciate this post is because @roinujx is sharing a process of how she got to her drawing. Within this process one can view helplines in her sketch to maintain symmetry. Her style of using tools is quite alternative and unconventional, which makes it rather unique. I think that posts like this are very valuable, as we can all learn so much from them. As someone who loves sketching, the post conveys profound sharing of knowledge.

Thanks for the detailed review here, I had actually skipped over this piece of art when I saw it in the feed but after reading your comment I went to check out the process pictures and I do think the help lines for drawing the face are very useful. Cheers

This link catches my attention. Indeed so true that sometimes the best remedy for relieving stressful moments is by hanging outs with your surroundings. Appreciating the beauty and quietness of nature makes your emotion calm and your mind rejuvenate. Watching the birds flying in mid-air, singing their own lullaby and the warmest of air the air that touches your being is truly an awesome experience that your soul can appreciate.

Victim of a big fire, people willing to help out and being happy you changed the habit and not all stayed at your parents home.
There is a lot of cleaning up to do, thanks to the writing style and pictures you can easily imagine what it smells like at this moment.
Life goes on and 1st priority is a new t.v.

I am a fan of sketches in general, but this one gave me a bit of a feel of the Spiderman comic. That is a special effort. I believe it takes a true spirit, not one try to satisfy viewers. An expression from one's core.

As photography is one of my favorite subject, I loved it because of the different combination of snaps included in the post. Most of the photos were spreading some life and mixed emotions and one foto have silence too in it.
Overall it looks a wonderful photo story.

I have followed the posts of @zirochka about her trip in Georgia and each one brought interesting information about this less known country.
Her last post - https://steemit.com/travelfeed/@zirochka/ananuri-fortress-georgia tells the story of an ancient fortress and she makes the story to sound like it is told by a tourist guide, which reminds me my past experrience as such.

Thank you so much, @nelinoeva! :) It is always a honor!
I have always been fascinated by water, the sea, rivers and lagoons; that's why this publication has caught my attention, https://steemit.com/lassecash/@hhayweaver/visit-to-niagara-falls the photos are very good, their shots and the nearness of the edge of the fall where they were taken, I do not know if tods has access to that point, but the vertigo could be felt or one of the photos.

I enjoyed this post because the artwork featured was not only gorgeous and showed clear development steps, but it stretched my imagination as to what can be done with a lump of charcoal ... well, not really just a lump, but my thinking about the possibilities of charcoal has been changed forever!

The information is very interesting, in addition to current, it exposes your point of view and what you think may happen, but behind all that there must be a background and interests.

I saw this post - https://steemit.com/homesteading/@goat-girlz/breaking-up-is-hard-to-do - and was immediately attracted by the images and title - I did go further down the resteems to see if something else could be even more for me - there were a lot of good posts but this had to be the one - I am such a sucker for animals and I especially love baby animals - this was such a sweet story - I just loved it :)

I liked this publication https://steemit.com/ntopaz/@betzaelcorvo/ntopaz--betzaelcorvo--188450676--ntopaz--2019-06-28-13-19-00--artwork--none because they are very little that I have seen in steemit that dominates that art, it touches very closely the realism and it presents it very professionally and that is very difficult to reach.
