Dear Steemians,

In this post I'm bringing you the results of the 8th week!

There were only 2 entries in the 3rd week by @wesphilbin & @brittandjosie. They made excellent posts, very sincere & also unselfishly promoted the #contest! Thank you!

1st place

@brittandjosie has participated in the #contest with a very strange #self-portrait - a manipulated abstract, conceptual image showing her with fingers growing on top of her head, instead of hair - there's a nice explanation about the visual in the original post: https://steemit.com/photography/@brittandjosie/self-portrait-contest-by-careassaktart

For all this effort & incredible creativity, I decide to give her the 1st prize - 4 STEEM, a 100% upvote and a resteem by me - & her entry is this:

2nd place

@wesphilbin has applied with a quite different #self-portrait accompanied with such a sincere description about his "fight" with MS so I decided to give him a 2nd prize - 2 STEEM and a 50% upvote.

This was his entry:

The 9th contest week will be published very soon!

Thanks for applying & I hope to see more of your entries in the weeks to come!

Thanks!
