It's been a week already, so I wanted to refresh memories on the contest and highlight the entire we've had so far, unfortunately only two, so I'll keep my fingers crossed for more next week:
For Z some photos of a zebra and her foal from @lifeskills-tv
For Y some photos of yoga poses from @nioberojas
As a thank you for their early entries they will both receive a beneficiary from this post and 5 Hive each is on its way from the liquid reward on the announcement post.
Now for a reminder of what we're looking for in the contest. Don't forget to put a link in the comments if you enter so we don't miss it.
Stock Images is currently working on building the indexes for easier navigation. Part of this involves individual index posts for each letter of the alphabet. However, some of those letters don't have many images to represent them. Therefore, we wish to challenge you, the Hive community, to see if you can create images to represent some of the letters we're short on.
We're looking for images which obviously showcase that they begin with the letter being represented. We hope that you can come up with some great ideas for each letter, but will try to give you some ideas to work with as well.
J: Juice, jam, jigsaw, jelly, jelly beans
K: Kite, knife, kangaroo, kitten, key
U: Umbrella, unicycle
V: Volcano, vase, violin, vulture
Then we have some rarely used letters if you feel up to the challenge:
Q: Queen, quilt, quill
X: Xylophone, x-ray
Y: Yoyo, yoghurt, yacht, yoga
Z: Zigzag, zip/zipper, zebra, zebra crossing
For some of the harder to represent letters, an image of the letter itself could be just what we need, either as a graffiti or graphic kind of image.
Rules, guidelines and rewards:
We will be looking for quality images in which the item in the image obviously represents the letter it begins with, so try to avoid anything abstract or that could be interpreted as something else. Please remember we can't use recognisable photos of people without specific permission from the person in the image and we can't use photos with visible brand names and logos.
Our favourite submissions will be awarded a share of at least 70 Hive and have the potential to be nominated for curation by OCD or Curangel. Any images chosen for use will also receive a beneficiary from the index post it's used in.
Contest will be open for two weeks from posting. You can post in any community, just make sure to use the #hivestockimages tag and add your link in the comments here so we don't miss it.
As the final say will be made by myself (minismallholding), I will only exclude myself from entering and encourage all our mods and helpers to also enter.
Thanks and beneficiaries go to @sitaru and @izzydawn for the thumbnail, @kaliphae for the divider. Half of the post rewards will be liquidated to increase contest prize pot.
Thank yoouu for the support and for the 5 hives!! Really appreciated ❤️
I can't believe there were only 2 entries. Maybe everyone is still creating their photographs?
@ikeror Tú eres muy bueno con las fotos! ¿Te gustaría echar una mano?
Thank you for your entry. We don't often get photographs of people with the permission in place to use, so I'm grateful you're happy for your image to be used.
He estado algo ausente y no había visto nada de este proyecto, veré cómo puedo participar ¡Gracias por etiquetarme! 🖤
¡Daleee! Ojalá se te ocurra algo cool! ❤️
@minismallholding i will try to enter and I will share this in discord and try to get more entries.
Thank you, much appreciated.
Oh, the time is over, I wanted to participate but my internet is very bad so I couldn't upload my photos 🥺. I captured some letters, so I'll add them then to help fill the index even if the contest is over.
I will be attentive to new activities like these. Thank you very much for organizing this contest and success to all the participants 🎉.
Yes, please do upload anyway. There are still gaps to fill and we'll always try to reward good submissions. I have to go out, so it will be a few more hours brefore I wrap up the challenge anyway, if you can get images in by then.
Thanks for answer! I already uploaded one post with one word, next days hope to post more photos for the index ☺️.
Wish you the best, thanks for organizing this iniciative.
Will try to enter. We didnt get many entries to NM challenge either.
If I'd had the time I wanted to add something for that one, but I was still part way through my last post, though. Trying to get some more pics and words together for the garden. Might make it in time for the next garden journal, if I'm lucky. 🤞
Fingers crossed for more submissions this week.
@tipu curate

Hmm, sounds like fun, I'll try to get some done when I find the time. When does this challenge end? Will try to add my images before the end date
I'm hoping to wrap it up at the end of the weekend.
Thank you for responding. hope to get mine in by then.

I have some more letters so I'm going to upload them then in next posts, hope you like it~.
Btw I've seen many vultures but i need a lens for my phone's camera to capture them, it's a pity.
@minismallholding so you want close ups right just the subject no surroundings?
As long as the surroundings don't detract subject they can be there, the subject just needs to be obvious.
This is my entry :
