Shoot Out On The Chicken Ranch Round 2 - Amaryllis

in #colourfulphotography7 years ago (edited)

@warpedweaver got to pick the subject for this round. This is my entry:

I was actually going for this shot:

I wound up liking that look of over-exposed better, I did not get the detail I wanted on the super-macro shot!

Pics are mine, taken with Fuji FinePix S8300

This week, I am playing for @photocontests. It is not really a "cause" but it is one of the accounts that does a LOT to make steemit fun and usable across language barriers, so if I win this round I will make my donation to that account.

Here are the details of our little challenge:
Shoot Out At The Chicken Ranch!

Three people, three cameras, one incredible vantage point. We call it "Sacred Acres" and it earns that title daily. From our little knoll, there are mountains and rolling hills 360 degrees around us. We often find ourselves grabbing the cameras and standing around clicking pictures of the same thing, but we each have our own set of eyes on the world, so they are never really quite the same. We decided to make a bit of a game of our situation, and invite our fellow steemians to help decide: Who Shot It Best? @warpedweaver, @longsilver or @fishyculture?

Each of us will post our photo with links to the other two blog posts. We invite you to vote for the one you think got the best picture in each "shoot out." But picking a pretty picture might be too hard, or too easy, so we want to throw in a twist. Whoever wins the shoot out will make a donation to the cause they specified in their post. So maybe you think @warpedweaver took the best picture but you like the cause that @longsilver is donating to... now you have a tough call to make!

The donation amount is guaranteed to be a minimum of 1 SBD. If the winning post earns more than 2 SBD the payout will be split 50/50 with the specified cause. If the winning post makes more than 20 SBD we will increase the cut for the winner's cause, We will worry about specifics if and when we need to.

Our rules are simple, we agree on a topic: It may be broad as in "Tuesday on the homestead" or narrow, as in "the cherry tree." A LOT of them will likely be sunrises and sunsets. We may crop and edit however we wish. We will attempt to post near simultaneously. Any vote counts, we are trying to have some fun, build our accounts and earn some SBD for good causes. We don't want to have to try to sort out bots from humans, we are all pretty much newbies here. Within 24 hours of our posts paying out, we will transfer the donation to the cause barring emergencies / unforeseen problems (power outages for instance.)

So pick your picture, or pick your cause to support and vote for you who think shot it best!
