Good afternoon guys! I was thinking of starting an initiative on food photography solely since I love food so much, so here it is!
What's the purpose of this?
There are many initiatives/contests on photography on the Steem blockchain. For instance, the colorchallenge by @kalemandra, contests by @juliank and @timsaid, one photo per day challenge by @gamer00 and probably others that I don't know of or can't remember off the cuff. @progressivechef has his own food challenge but that one requires real skills on cooking and food presentation but it comes with good prizes as well.
This initiative is for those of us who can't or rather don't cook but love to take photos of what we ate, just like what I do rather often. Yeah, the annoying Asian trait. Hence, I wanted to start this initiative to get people to post more food stuff, especially if you're not much into writing lengthy articles. Furthermore, some of you guys may not have the time to write with your OTs at work. Perhaps APPICs is a more suitable platform for this, but until it comes into force, do participate in this!
How it works
- Use the tag "dailyfoodphotography" in your post. It doesn't have to be the first tag.
- Include a photo of food you made / ate somewhere, regardless of whether it's a takeaway, restaurant, cafe or whatnot.
- One photo is sufficient for this purpose. If you want to post more, then go ahead.
- (Optional) Do let me know what type of camera you used, whether it's a smartphone camera or a DSLR.
- No plagiarized photos permitted! Not just for this initiative, but for any post on the Steem blockchain.
- Any food cuisine is accepted.
- To encourage posting, I will send 0.5 Steem each to my favorite two food photos of the day, every day. It's not much but it may increase in the future. It's not a contest, just a way to encourage more original food photography.
- The day is counted from midnight to midnight (GMT + 8).
- I'll try not to reward the same person each day unless no one else is participating.
Disclaimer: It may die off if no one participates

Food is my thing, am totally in for this contest. Thanks for the privilege.
Given how much food stuff I post, I really should enter this occasionally...
Pretty sure I can post food images on days that I'm a little stressed about getting an actual full post out too
You can join at anytime :)
Gaaah I found you! Going to participate in your contest since I am into food :)
Great!
Hi, I am new to steemit and a friend, @kneelyrac, recommended me to join in this contest ^_^ Which I will be in the nest few days. I'm excited to get started in this journey!
Hey do join in :)
Hello mate! It's a shame that I am reading this post so late...but happy to have found!
Wonderful initiative! I will surely use the tag on my next food post!
Thanks for this!
That's awesome! I'm away for now so there may not be prizes, but thanks for using the tag!
No worries about the prizes mate, just wanna use the tag to share my food a little more to you all!
This is the way I feel, too. It is just so fulfilling to share with someone else, exchanging ideas, learning from each other. That is reward enough.
Hello from a Singaporean! New to Steemit but of course one of the first things I went looking for was food photography, definitely going to join in on this!
That's great :)
Hi, I'm a newbie and discovered this thread. Thanks for setting up this opportunity. Will definitely use your tag when I post food photos up :)
When I get to travel outside my country the first thing that I will do is taste their food. What are those by the way they look so tasty. Any your contest looks fun i will join it soon.
Thanks. Do join!
Super support.
Thanks man.
Thanks for taking the initiative in starting this daily operation. I can surely help by sharing your post on various other platforms.
Thanks Tony!
I just saw your post and I took part in the challenge by editing my tag. Hopefully it is counted >< By the way, I am using compact DSLR. Sony A6100
I read your post right after you posted and I was surprised to see the same tag there. I thought you've been using it lol. Yeah it's counted
Hahaha, sorry sorry, I was pretty nervous to change the tag. Hope you like my article :)
hello, can i do the same to one of my post i posted yesterday?? let me know if I can.
Sorry only posts from today onwards..
Its a cool contest someday i will have an entry
What a fun idea! I'm definitely one of those people that take more food photos of what I ate rather than what I cooked! You'll be sure to see me joining in soon! :D
Nice! You can join anytime :)
Joined! :D
Sounds great i'm in i have just posted my first entry to your contest. You can only enter one photo one time per day is that right. Thanks for encouraging yet another interesting contest.
