PAPA-PEPPER'S COMBINATION PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST WEEK 56

in #contest5 years ago

Okay, I'm late, but we're on to the next contest!


It's been great to be able to see all of different animals and plants in your areas, in some wonderful combination photography! I'm still super excited about all of the participation, since without your entries, there would be no contest!

EXAMPLES

Before I get into who won the contest last week, I’ll once again review what I am looking for by featuring some combination photos of mine.

When I say “combination photography” I mean that you should combine two elements; plants and animals. At least one plant and at least one animal should be featured in your photo. Here are a few examples.


Grasshopper on Lemon Balm


Black and Yellow Millipede (Apheloria virginiensis) with weeds


Besides simply providing the images, I also require that those entering this contest provide a proof photo as well. Two main versions of proof photos exist. One kind features the same combination of plants & animals with a written paper in the photo with your username, the date, contest name, etc. to prove that you took the photo for the contest.

The other type of proof is just a selfie with the animal and plant. Here are my examples for the photos featured above.

Once you see the proof photos there should not be any doubt in your mind that I actually took the photos I shared above, because you can see me right there! The written proof works in the same way.

THE WINNERS!


Before I share who won, let me please mention that this was an extremely hard week to judge. You guys are making some amazing entries here! The Winner gets 50% of the liquid post payout from the Week 55 Post and the two runner ups each get 25% of the same.

Thank you everyone for all of your efforts and entries! It has been a blessing to check them all out! Although the official way to enter this contest is by including your entry photo and the proof photo in a reply to my post, I strongly encourage others to make an actual post featuring their entry as well. Sometimes people who don’t win get paid more for their post than if they had actually won!

ON TO WEEK 56!


By now you should have a clue about what this contest is and how to enter, but here are the official rules just to make sure. Enjoy, and I am looking forward to seeing what you can come up with.

HERE ARE THE OFFICIAL RULES:

  • Photo entries must be placed in the reply/comment section of this post.
  • Submissions may also be made into posts, but it is not necessary.
  • A proof photo will also be required. This can be in the form of a selfie with the subjects from the photos or in the form of your username written on a piece of paper in a photo, etc. Basically, you must prove the originality of your work. Therefore, your entry comment should include two photos.
  • Users have between now and the time of the post payout to enter this contest.
  • I will personally select one winner to award half of the liquid post payout from this post to and two runner ups who will each get 25% of the same.
  • Enter as many times as you like!
  • Depending on the interest in this contest, I may have it be ongoing.

TL;DR

If you reply to this post with a photo of a plant and animal together and include a proof photo before the post payout from this post, you may win a portion of the post payout.

LET THE 56TH WEEK OF THE CONTEST BEGIN!!!

As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

That thing was smaller than my finger nail and I chased it all over the yard. It flew away when I tried to do a selfie with it. But you can tell it is the same flower.

My proof

It’s a pity I’m usually so passionate about taking pictures of objects that I forget to take a picture of myself. Sometimes only my shadow is visible) Cool competition! A series of shots as evidence is not suitable? Sometimes I take a step and a picture, a step and a picture, until I touch the butterfly wings with the lens))

I think he needs the proof shot so that scammers can't just rip off another person's online photos.

Correct.

Thank you so much! Merry Christmas!

Good photography like as always.. Thank you.

I found this little spider crawling around on some wood ear mushrooms that I was taking pictures of. (I posted some info about the mushrooms a couple of days ago). It didn't take too kindly to me trying to photograph it, so it tried to hide up under one of the ears.

And here I am holding one of the mushrooms.
