Shoot the Moon Contest winners

in #astronomy5 years ago (edited)

It's been a while but I finally managed to snatch some time to write up contest results. I must say that even tho there were not so many entries the posts you made up were extraordinary, each in its own way.

Prize pool: As stated, All of the posts were upvoted with a full vote for participation and all liquid rewards would go into the pool. Another big surprise was the support we got for this contest - it ended up being about 5 HBD in the end, which converted to 17 HIVE to be split.

So 17 HIVE to share amongst all the contesters, and the ones that qualify.

Winner - @astrophoto.kevin (9 HIVE)


Not surprisingly at all, @astrophoto.kevin once again excelled at photography showing us amazing moon pictures from various phases, with a special addition - The lunar eclipse stage.

Runner ups:


@lacking (4 HIVE)

Instead of just showing us nice lunar images, he went a bit further and presented us a great story about Igaluk, The Inuit Moon God. I recommend giving it a read, it's just fascinating how all the civilization come up with similar yet drastically different stories for the same things on the sky.

@patschwork (3 HIVE)

Apart from a nice sky with crescent moon photo, @patschwork presented quite a nice song and several interesting art pieces. I really like the next one

@joseacabrerav (1 HIVE)

And the final consolation prize goes to @joseacabrerav with a song Mujer constelación: Letra.
Even tho I don't understand a word apart from the title the song is quite nice and I personally enjoyed (few times).
