Sun Thursday contest on Hive starting edition 2

Sun lovers and photography junkies - here we come with the next edition of our SunThursday contes. Thanks to all (not that many - but still!) contributions in the last ones.

MAJOR THANKS to the sponsoring folks

We have some great Hive users that sent me some Steem to support the winning three entries.

@dswigle - a lovely lady from the US that I know since times way before the Steem blockchain was invented - she generously sponsored 20 Hive from her own pockets

@ervin-lemark - one of the legends on the blockchain, here since I can think of blockchain and also sponsored 20 Hive

@theycallmedan - I am sure all of you know this Hive supporter and promoter - he will vote the three winning posts moving forward.

The rules

From this edition onwards we have a few changes:

  • Contest submissions will need to be made until July 19, 10pm CET to make sure we have enough time to select the winner
  • Decision on the winner will be made by the winner of the previous Sun Thursday week - so @almi it is you to decide on - given you are not aware yet of this news please let me know if you are happy to judge (please note: you can not attend this time then) or not. We would need to have the decision by July 20, 10pm CET to ensure the votes will be given as part of the prize. Kudos also here to @dswigle for the great suggestion!

What to win (contest will be handled every two weeks)

This is a fun contest where I still am searching for sponsors - for now the following rewards will be paid to the three winners:

1. Prize: 3 Hive
2. Prize: 2 Hive
3. Prize: 1 Hive

PLUS - all three will receive a little UPVOTE by @theycallmedan - thanks for supporting this!

Looking for community sponsors

Please comment or DM me if you want to support great photography content creators. Ideally a community or whales joins the party so we do not get stuck with small user pocket money only :-).

How can I win?

Please create a post using the tag #SunThursday showing your own original photography or video work covering the sun or write about positivity which I link to the sun which enabled and maintains the possibility of life in general. The three best submissions will receive their prize token after 5 days (in this case July 21).

The rules

  • Post photography, video or written content covering the topic SUN
  • Use the tag #SunThursday as your first tag
  • Add link to your submission in the comments on THIS post
  • Consider to "vote&reblog" this post to spread the contest (not mandatory but it might help)
  • Only original (your own) content will qualify
  • GOOD LUCK!

Thanks a lot @kaminchan - trying to help some fun as much as I can within my limited time

Hi! Thanks for your reply and good intention. I hope you have plenty of time to do whatever you wanna do. Think positive and extend the time continuum. Time is a psychological construct any way! Funny thing, time! I try to grapple with it everyday! LoL

Thank you so much for running this contest. I'm excited to see all the entries! Here's mine: https://peakd.com/sunthursday/@jayna/sunthursday-reflections-on-how-much-i-love-the-sun
