#club5050 The Orca Journal

If you are reading this because I mentioned you, well you are one of many who have been supported by the mighty orca during the past seven days! So once again congratulations 👏 Also don’t stop there, make me keep coming back for more of your unique content.

Here today in my orca journal I chose to feature articles that have not been included in other magazines so these bloggers get some extra attention too. Please don't be shy, we all love it, speaking from experience.

The World of XPILAR - LANDSCAPE/SEASCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK #119||Beach activities and photography located near Kruenggeukueh harbor by @muzack1

I simply adore the diversity here in the WORLD OF XPILAR so I decided to make a list of the countries the authors I supported are based in. So posts from Korea to the USA, from Nigeria to Germany and Ukraine, from Venezuela to right here where the orca resides in good old England, from Turkey to Russia and all the way to the exotic Singapore and Indonesia, then back to Europe with Scotland and France and the not just a party island of Ibiza which all caught my eye.

All about the yellow by @fashionphotos

Some of you opened up and shared personal positive and negative recent events. Others decided to write about a recent trip which are to be honest favourite posts of mine as I myself love travelling. So if I can explore more, here, virtually, whilst doing my best to reach out to as many authors as possible, this is just perfect.

My City In 10 Photos: Kalush, Ukraine by @o1eh

Let’s admire another stunning painting from @ronthroop whilst reading a fabulous article and even join @romanie in painting a mural in a hotel room on her Spanish island.

I also supported @xpilar's nomination challenge where @esthersanchez is regularly nominating her fellow Steemians and she also, together with many others, wrote short stories inspired by @adeljose's writing contest.

The orca also gave a 100% vote to @mister-omortson's weekly contests, which I also love taking part in and they encourage bloggers from other communities to post here in the WORLD OF XPILAR. So this is a great space to meet new people and exchange ideas. I am really proud that I got awarded the gold for my crab meal photo. So well done me, well done me!

The orca in between taking photos, also upvoted one of the many fantastic sports articles by @fpl-gorilla and she will continue to do so.

I also did some gardening together with @ultravioletmag who even suggested a meetup which I think I am quite up for.

Giving food second chances

I got blown away by the purple paradise that @rossfletcher photoed for us on the other side of the ocean. Further north, we saw a raccoon shared by @brittilicious.

To the authors who are still wondering what they can do better, number one is be consistent, post as regularly as you possibly can. You photoed or painted something fabulous, yes please, don't keep it to yourself, share it here but tell us a bit more than just a sentence about it. If writing doesn't come naturally to you, start by describing the location, what time of the day and year you photoed the object and what it means to you.

Practice makes creative writing perfect, that special moment when you are the other side of the computer screen feeling just free to express yourself. A little research always helps and many of us will find it useful. I even take digital notes when attending events and I also do voice to text notes during my hour, sometimes even more, of daily exercise. You also don't need the newest, most expensive photography equipment or the highest quality of painting materials to be able to produce a decent quality post. What matters is that it is your own, it is original and you chose to post it here in our community.

The World of XPILAR - B&W PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK #110 / by: @josertalaverag by @josertalaverag

What to post about in WOX is a question that @samsol003 asked, what topics are best to focus on. Well, everything really, from lifestyle, gardening, food, wildlife, travel, crypto, music, art, education and so on. What is best about our community is its structure as it is not just two friends here who support each other and need a few others just for their statistics. There is quite of a hierarchy here with moderators based in various countries and we are lucky to have the hardworking @stef1 who will not miss supporting a quality post written by somebody who invests in growing their account.

Black & White Watercolour Painting: Misty Forest by @manisha.jain9

No amount of Steem is too tiny to power up and you can also consider being a member of #club100 #club75 or #club5050 I am quite pleased that I am in the club and I will continue to power up. Even right now I have placed an order on the market here and as soon as it goes through you will see another power up of mine. The price of Steem is quite low now which is just another reason to swap your Steem Dollars for Steem and power up. I believe that the value of Steem will increase, it always does. So back to our community which is totally worth posting in as trust me, we are simply interested in each other. We are social, we comment and we do get to know each other better, we give valuable feedback and together we come up with amazing ideas on what to do here next.
