First up, we have a short metal cover by @infinitytone. It's melodic, very interesting and attention grabbing, all in all an excellent cover! I can't describe music with words so why don't you go and listen for yourselves?

Everything you hear in this track was produced using virtual instruments - guitars from Impact Soundworks, Steven Slate drums and other VSTs.

This author's profile is filled with great music, mostly game related, and everything that I've listened to is just amazing. I highly recommend you to scroll around an play a few songs.

Our second post for today is all about photography and travel. We have an opportunity to see a little bit of gorgeous landscape photography on the Tenerife island. @softa captured a few perfect shots and the nature looks so great, it makes me want to get on a plane and visit. Great work!

I have been planning for a long time about my humiliation of GR 131, which runs across the island of Tenerife. Today is the day I embark on this project. The route is likely to be divided into several parts because it is quite physically demanding and there is plenty to see. I personally had to go back on this route the next year because I didn't break it for the first time. -@softa

This author is a dedicated photographer and on his profile you can find many great pics to enjoy. Most of them are landscapes or about motorcycles, so if these two things interest you, don't hesitate to give them a look.

I think that with the development he will receive all the vices of his own progenitor. -@nekromarinist

This author is a really great illustrator and has posted tons of awesome posts, one of my favorites being The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

I love cheery melodies and guitar covers and this one is no exception. @bakingjazzpower made this incredible cover and it sounds like an intro to some amazing comedy show in my opinion. All in all amazing work, definitely worth giving it a listen!

I offer a small cover of Dusty Rag (1908, May Aufderheide) that I've made in recent times! Guitar, banjolele, washboard -@bakingjazzpower

Fun fact about this author is that the skeleton in the picture you can see above is actually his original making. It's a mosaic made from glossy glass paste and I think it also deserves some recognition!

Finally let's get into the Holiday spirit with some gorgeous winter photography of snowy mountains. This is a post about travelling, hiking to be exact, which is also very well narrated and explained. I recommend reading it, you might learn a thing or two!

Winter… Winter has come. As the temperatures drop, so does the number of people willing to spend their time outside. Despite that, some of us are still going to seek out the great outdoors. It is not that easy just to stick around in the cities throughout the whole winter pretending like there is nothing better to do because that’s definitely not true Nature doesn’t stop calling, never mind the season.

When it comes to hiking in subzero temperatures, it is not a question of natural tolerance to cold, rather a question of pure will, motivation and decent levels of know-how. The first two I cannot teach, but the latter I can share and that is exactly what this article is all about. Winter wonderland hiking guide for beginners in the majestic Tatra mountains. -@ctdots

This author has posted a whole bunch of posts similar to this one and all of them are AMAZING! If you find this one interesting I guarantee you will enjoy the rest as well.
