Hello Fellow Stemians,

As I mentioned in a previous post I am now the Moderator of the NSFW Section on the Whaleshares discord channel and I will running contests where I will be awarding Whaleshares to the 1st Through 10th Place winners. I'm going to be coming up with different themes and kinda of just play this by ear and it will develop as it goes along.

I'm going to give you the basic rules but first, if you don't know what Whaleshares are please see my previous posts at the links below:

https://steemit.com/steemit/@nspart/nspart-how-i-added-over-usd70-to-my-payout-on-one-of-my-steemit-posts-by-using-whaleshares

https://steemit.com/photography/@nspart/put-hardfork-19-on-steroids-with-whaleshares-i-got-a-177-percent-increase-on-my-payout-with-whaleshares-that-s-an-additional

First off, I want to talk about NSFW. In the context of this contest and Channel, NSFW will be defined as anything with Full Nudity. This is the Standard of how I tag my Posts and since I was asked to be the Moderator and Run the contest I'm going to use that definition.

The General Contest Rules for the Weekly NSFW Contest:

1. You Must Upvote and Resteem This Post.

  1. You Must Post the Link to your post in a comment on this thread & on the NSFW-General section of the Whaleshares Discord Channel: https://discord.gg/CFJ97HW

  2. The submission must stick to the theme.

  3. It must be original work that you created and this must be verifiable. This can include self-portraits but NOT Selfies (meaning seeing you hold the camera selfie style.) Also models may submit work they are in if they have permission from the photographer.

  4. I will be judging the contest using the criteria of Originality, Creativity, Composition, Use of Theme, Color/Greyscale Pallet, and Overall Vibe I get from it. (Because I am judging I will not be submitting an entry.)

  5. I will announce the theme and then you will have until the payout period of this post ends to submit your work.

  6. Must be a member of the Whaleshares channel. https://discord.gg/CFJ97HW

  7. Your Post Must Include the Tag that references the contest which will be announced along with the the theme.

  8. You must post a link to your entry in the Whaleshares NSFW Forum. (This gets your post more exposure)

  9. Only one entry per per person - You may have up to 3 images in your post.

  10. You must tell us a little about the process you took to create the photo. This can be long or short, but I’m judging the photos not the text, but the text makes more enjoyable for many of the readers and is educational.

12. Your Entry MUST BE submitted before this post pays out.

Note: By entering the contest you are giving me permission to use the photos in a post announcing the winners and future posts looking back at previous winners or submissions. You will be credited and people will be encouraged to vote for your posts and visit and follow you.

As the Whaleshares NSFW community grows we might have contests that focus other mediums like Painting & Drawing, maybe one for Writing, Erotica, etc… as well. But for now I'm going to open it up to photos.

Once again this must be Original work and not a derivative of someone else's work so no grabbing someone else's images and throwing a filter on it. There is a difference between inspiration and direct copying. So you must be creator of the work for this contest.

This contest is about rewarding the NSFW content creators for their creativity, hard work, talent and producing original work. So that’s what I’m looking for. This is to also helps you grow as a photographer rather than just being someone taking snapshots.

The theme for this week’s contest is “Black & White Solo Nude Art” & The TAG is “whalesharesnsfwcontest”

Rules for This Week's Theme:

• This can be from Implied Nudes to Explicit Nudes of one model.
(If you are not familiar with these terms or what this looks like view some of my posts of my work)

• You will not gain points for being less or more explicit as that’s not what I’m judging.

• This contest is not open to hardcore porn. (nothing against it, but it not part of this week's theme)

• You can do self-portraits but NOT Selfies (meaning seeing you hold the camera selfie style.)

• This can be already existing work or you can shoot for this contest.

Let’s see what you come up with and have fun!

The Prizes

I wanted to give prizes to a lot of people so the Prizes will be as follows. Due Hard Fork 19 we had to reduce the number of shared now that votes are worth several times more. Also each whaleshare equals 1% of whale power upvote. So 100 Whaleshares is 1 100% Vote or you could do 10 10% Votes (Actually due to the Bitshare fee of 1 Whaleshare it would be 9)

1st 100 Whaleshares
2nd 50 Whaleshares
3rd 25 Whaleshares
4th 10 Whaleshares
5th 10 Whaleshares
6th 10 Whaleshares
7th 10 Whaleshares
8th 10 Whaleshares
9th 10 Whaleshares
10th 10 Whaleshares

Steps to take now to enter…

  1. Upvote and Resteem this post.

  2. Create your post and include the tag whalesharesnsfwcontest and of course the nsfw tag and then post the link in a comment below. Your Entry MUST BE submitted before this post pays out.

  3. Also Post the link to the NSFW-General section on the Whaleshares discord channel. https://discord.gg/CFJ97HW

  4. Follow Me so you will see the announcement post of the winners.

  5. Sit back and relax. :)

While I'm not entering the contest myself I am presenting some examples below of my own Black & White Erotic Art from Implied Nude to Explicit Nude to set the mood for this contest. I hope it inspires you not to copy my work but to create some original work of your own for this week's theme.

Implied Nude with Kristy Jessica - This was made implied by the pose and camera angle.

Implied Nude with Chanel - This was made implied by adding elements in Photoshop.

Implied Nude with Porsche Monique - This was made implied by the pose and angle.

Full Nude with Fayette

Explicit Nude with Sophia Jade - In my opinion this is explicit but still very tasteful and Erotic Art.

You can also see my latest Black & White post that is still active at the link below:

So let's have some fun, do your best (were all here to learn and improve) and I would say good luck but really there is no luck to it as this contest is about Ability & Talent and most of all growing and improving as artists/photographers.

And please go view the submissions of the Photographers submitting their work and upvote their post also. :)

Thanks,

So excited to see more entries. I will prepare a lot of tissues!

Gorgeous photography! Way to go!

Thanks again!

I think I should join. :D

I'm the creator of everything I post :) I don't have a lot of BW nudes, though I can do some conversions..

Conversions are fine. I always shoot in color and then convert.

hahaha great idea, love your post!!:))

Nice pics

Can you do more shots of Fayette's face? She's an interesting one.

I'll post some more oh her in the future. There is also more of her in my older posts.

If you like graffiti, my most recent post if of my black book from age 13!

It would be nice to have something like this with tbe models being Steemit users as myself.

Ps... I will enter this contest. :)

This is great!

Good luck to everyone!

Please don't post links that are not entries into the contest. This is spamming of non-relevent links.
