Self-Portrait Photo Contest - 18th Week
Dear Steemians,
By organizing this #contest I wanted to contribute to the further development & growth of the #Steemit community!
There were 2 entries in the 17th week but the 1st place stayed empty!!! The post with the results & explanations can be seen on the following address: https://steemit.com/contest/@careassaktart/self-portrait-photo-contest---results---17th-week
INSTRUCTIONS:
Be creative & make self-portraits not in that common way as the trendy "selfies" but in a high quality way partly describing yourself & your way of life. Every each of us has many different roles to play in life: worker, sportsman, soldier, writer, driver, lover, husband, father, wife, mother, artist, model, waitress, lawyer, dancer, actress, scientist, doctor, singer, musician, politician, manager, nurse, porn star, prostitute, gigolo, pimp... or some kind of an imaginary character - somebody who you would like to be... There is plenty of inspiration for the theme!
Nudes are also very appreciated & welcomed as well as the conceptual & art #photography.
#Photos can be full color, b&w & #monochrome tones.
How to apply for the #contest:
- Use a #self-portrait tag as one of your tags in the post.
- Clearly mention the #self-portrait photo contest in your post title or post body & tag me in your post - @careassaktart (As this will help to grow this contest). For example: "This is my entry for the #self-portrait photo contest by @careassaktart"
- Ad a short story / explanation / description to the photo.
- Your #self-portraits must be your original work as well as the text following! Stolen content will be immediately reported to @steemcleaners.
- Post a link to your entry in the comment below this post.
- Please write in English.
Deadline: Thursday, 27th of August 2019, 02:00 PM Central European Standard Time zone in Zagreb (GMT+1)
This is not a selfie #contest & selfies are not acceptable & will be refused & disqualified!
If you don't know the difference between #self-portrait & #selfie & consider to participate in my contest, I advise you to please read the following article: https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-a-selfie-and-a-self-portrait.
Portraits of you shot by others are not self-portraits & will not be accepted either!
Prizes

🥈 Second place: 2 STEEM
🥉 Third place: 1 STEEM
Example:
Wise Guy
In this moment I was on the top of the tower in Korčula in 2016. About that trip I wrote in one of my travel posts just here on my #steemit blog & you can still find & read it - it is a really nice story about me travelling & exploring my homeland. I would bet you would be thrilled with all what you can find in a small country like mine is & if you ever manage to visit us down here on the poor Mediterranean, more precisely - Adriatic sea - you can see a special kind of satisfaction in my face, the way how I look at the horizon & how I process the data - it is written on my face...
It would be nice to have a #sponsor who would #delegate some SP so that this #contest can develop further more & that the prizes can be bigger...
By #delegating SP to me for the purpose of this #contest, you become a #sponsor / supporter & you will be mentioned in every next #self-portrait connected post of mine!
I'm looking forward to see your entries!
No Upvote, No Resteem, No Follow required. Of course, all the help and support you give is greatly appreciated and absolutely voluntary.
Thanks!

Not accepted this time.
I believe you can make a lot more interesting & more creative shots of yourself with a focus on your legs & in the same time that your face is seen! Dear @deadgrlsuppastar, for God's sake, you are an artist after all, ain't you?!
So, show the world some true art & not this every-day summer beach generic "sausage" bullshit, please!
You can still re-enter this round or prepare yourself slowly for the next one!
Thanks!
I want dreads, too
Go for them! ;)
I'm thinking more of this:
Old song. Used to be a hit! Nice dreads too!
May the best person win
