announcing the 10th guess the shadow contest

in Shadow Hunters4 years ago (edited)

50% of the beneficiary rewards to this post go in support of #hive-179017

i would like to express my sincere appreciation to OCD for the support they provide. i am sure you all agree that the Shadow Hunters Community Boost Contest was something else!

first a little info about this contest for any newcomers:
in this contest i post a image of a shadow and the contestants try to guess what is making it. the first to surmise what it is gets the main prize but there are also prizes for other guesses. not so much fun in everybody guessing what somebody else already guessed- the more creative, the more the prize. the idea is to have fun so if you are contributing to the fun somehow, you'll likely qualify for something.

normally the prizes for this contest are 3 HIVE and 300 POINTS. these are provided by our ehived (that's HIVE- speak for esteemed) leader @melinda010100.

for the time being we also have a special prize- the venwood prize awarded to the venwoodest reply. that is HIVE-speak for an extraordinary reply which stretches the limit of what is conceivable to the point where it bursts. bursts out in laughter, that is. the venwood prize shall only be awarded for advanced effort abounding with fantastical elucidation. a one-liner just won't do,

a venwood approach to a mystery is not to attempt to reveal some profound hidden truth, but rather to remove the weight of darkness from the unknown thereby lightening the load for all those fortunate enough to happen upon such a response. by extension it is an approach to life itself.

the prize is 0 to 3 HIVE as long as supplies last. the prize came about as a result of a gift from a kindhearted contestant who entered the venwoodest replies imaginable. yet he is overly modest and shy so he insisted that he remain anonymous. any and all contributions to this "prize fund" are most welcome.

by the way, if you want to learn HIVE-speak, give these ladies a buzz in the most mellifluous voice you can muster. if you are clever enough they may share some delicious insight.

**what on earth is making this shadow???******

as always HIVE and/or POINTS are given for the correct answer and even for not so probable ones . our charitable judges may also recommend nominations to pixresteemer. if you think some ________ (-body else) has beaten you to your guess, there's no need to throw in the sponge, Bob, the point is we're here to have some fun so do join in

this contest still has just one basic rule:
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
please live by it at least until midnight May 3rd

it wouldn't be right to close without mentioning our generous sponsors:
@hive-179017 and @ecency @taskmanager @pixresteemer and @galenkp

Sort:  

I remember something at my childhood after watching this honeybees, we are a couple of friends were trying to hunt some honeybees and there is some accident happened like all the honeybees attacking us and we are just running and hiding into the bushes. Lol

What situation have you had to live dear friend @thesobuz, something that I would not like to happen.

I may sound strange, but can it be a windvane on the roof?

Esta es la sombra de una alegre y divertida bisagra bailarina cantando: "Dale a tu cuerpo alegría Macarena... Heeee ¡Macarena! Aaayyy.
Jajajaja, me he divertido mucho en esta comunidad.
Saludos a todos y sigan adivinando.

this is my translation:
This is the shadow of a cheerful and funny hinge dancer singing: "Give your body joy Macarena
Heeee, Macarena! Aaayyy.
Jajajaja, I've had a lot of fun in this community.

Oooh Wow!!! Have you visited Karl the giant from Big Fish??? Because that shadow cannot be anything other than the hinge of Karl's door... What is he going to do now without his hinge??? Do you know how difficult it is to find someone to fix a door of that size? :)

Let me guess the shadow.... I think it is a post in the road, usually can be seen when we are driving our car in any cross roads it is a traffic light. :)

Movies and tv shows tell me this is a telephone pole!
That's my first guess. I should stick with my first guess, yes? I mean... I also think it's something smaller... but people say: "Always go with your first thought"!

I'm also gonna stick to my first thought though I'm not very optimistic about it.
Could it be a supporting post like for a deck or roof for example?

This is a Life Signpost comprising empty space shapes to test one’s individual soul growth, which is determined by how a soul weaves in and out of the hole/whole patterns and measured by the universal infinite in a mysterious and unknowable process. The entire Life Signpost is balanced by the above and below symbols on each side.

This is so difficult!!!

It's symmetric, and it looks like some sort of stand where you can put things on the the L shapes. I think those are handles to swing it round, whatever it is... or it might be mic...

I know, it's a outdoor stand with built in microphones for karaoke when you have a summer barbeque!!!!! 😃
