RE: SteemitPhotoChallenge #13 - Bald Eagle Resting on Ground

Thank you so much for the information. I am new to this website and have been able to spend little time here. I just came across the photo challenge when searching for photography. I did not understand how it worked, had no idea if there were rules, and if there were any, I could not figure out how to locate them.

I read the link you posted (thank you again).

I did not see in your post the answer to these questions that I would appreciate you answering? thanks.

  1. how long does each challenge last,
  2. how is the winner selected, and
  3. how often does the challenge change?
  4. Can you submit more than one photo?
  5. if you repost the winner, is acknowledgement given to the winner as the creator/photographer?

Sorry, they used to post the rules on every photo challenge. Here's an old one with the Rules listed about halfway down:
https://steemit.com/steemitphotochallenge/@jamtaylor/steemit-photo-challenge-10-theme-announcement-sep-22-25

But I'll answer the questions as best I can.

  1. Each challenge usually starts on Thursday. Deadline usually midnight Sunday UTC -4 (For me that's 9pm Sunday Pacific Time). They announce the winners mid day Monday.
  2. JamTaylor, the host, or a selected guest judge will pick the photos that best represent the topic of the week. They definitely encourage you to take new photos relevant to the contest as opposed to using one of your photos you took 5 years ago. The link above will describe more but they base their judgments on concept, composition, technical, etc. Go click on the host JamTaylor's page to see his previous posts of winners to get an idea.
  3. New topic announced each Thursday. They've already done architecture, landscapes, city life, animal, fashion, etc. You don't know what the next topic will be until they announce it on Thursday.
  4. You can only submit a maximum of three photos per weekly contest. If you submit more than three then they'll only consider the first three.
  5. Yes, if your photo is a winner or an honorable mention in the contest, they will give you credit and will send you some Steem, too. And if you win an award, it helps your post gain some $teem payout and followers.

Make sure to read the full rules. The new challenge should be out today (I still need to check it out).

OMG you are amazing!!!
Thank you soooo much for taking the time to post on the rules with the link. I will check out the link in the next several days, hopefully in time to post before this week ends! Thank you again for your time. :)
