Feathered Friends
This week's theme is going to be all about our Feathered Friends. Birds are pretty awesome and super graceful when they are flying. It is crazy to see how many different adjustments that their wings and bodies make as they are flying. The reward pool for this new theme has been doubled from 25 Hive to 50 Hive. So first place in the pro tier is worth 16 Hive and first place in Amateur is 8 Hive.
How is the Deranged Photography Contest set up?
Every Sunday, I will announce a new theme for the week and you will have until Saturday to get your submission in. There will be two tiers for the contest. A professional tier and an amateur tier. When making your submission, you must state which tier you will be competing in. I usually get a lot of entries, so make sure to follow all the rules or else your submission won't count and will likely be ignored.
I will not allow any entry that is not your own original photography. If you are caught plagiarizing someone else's work, you will be flagged and banned from participating in any future contest. So make sure that the photos you are submitting are ones that you personally take.
All entries must be done through the Liketu front end. One of the goals of the contest is to create more awareness of Liketu, so make sure that you create your post from https://liketu.com/.
You only get one entry per week, so make sure to spend some time on getting a good photo and creating a fun post about your entry. You will need to submit a link to your post in the comment section of the contest announcement post and you will need to include at least one image from your post in the comment you make. You are encouraged to share more than one image in your post. The more effort you put into your post, the more chance you have for curation and possibly winning your tier.
On top of a chance for curation from Liketu, the top three entries in each tier will be awarded as follows:
| Place | Professional | Amateur |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | 8 Hive | 4 Hive |
| 2nd | 5 Hive | 3 Hive |
| 3rd | 3 Hive | 2 Hive |
Rules overview
- Your entry must be made on Liketu.
- No plagiarism. If you are caught plagiarizing, you will be flagged and banned from future contest.
- You must state the tier you are competing in, Professional or Amateur.
- You must comment on the weekly contest announcement post with a link to your entry and at least one photo from your post.
The rules are pretty easy, so make sure to follow them or your entry will be ignored.

Great shots. You really need to go into the Hivewatchers discord and figure out how to get off the spaminator downvote trail.
Thanks. I did. Unfortunately, I did make a mistake with part of my text describing the location of my photos (which I thought was ok until I read the definition). I've realised my mistake and I'm trying to work it off now. Until then, I'm kinda stuck with spaminator.
I’m glad you are working on getting it removed
I made it this week! Looking at last week's photos I'm not sure my capibaras would've made it \o\o\ Great job everyone.

Hi @derangedvisions. I think I am interested in giving this a shot. But I need to clarify something pls. Is the theme Feathered friends (that is all animals with feathers?) or just flying birds alone?
Thanks.
Any animal with feathers would work for this theme. I am very interested on what you have planned for this.
Hello, can I participate in this competition with my chickens?
Sure, as long as they still have their feathers. Fried chicken won’t work.
I laughed out loud 😂 Ok, I'll be participating soon. Thanks 🙂
Looking forward to it

Too bad you didn't think it would be polite to request permission to use our community to run your contest!
I hope it is successful for you.
I am not using your community to run this contest. I was suggesting that people could make posts to your community if they wanted too, since you know, your community is for birds…
But I will refrain from ever suggesting your community for anything in the future.
I have removed any mention of your community from the contest since it seems you do not want people to post to it.
Thank you. The Feathered Friends Community would never require users to use a particular front end.
Damn. I said I'd take photos of capibaras for last week's contest. I did.. but got home way to late. Congrats everyone.
Way to go...
