@rickyjrx runs a weekly photo challenge on Steemit. Each week he comes up with an interesting theme and has been getting great entries. I find these challenges a great way to get inspiration for posts. There is also has a weekly prize which makes this one attractive.

I have been running a monthly Culture Vulture Challenge since last month, where you can feast on Culture from around the world. This is a Steemit community effort and I have been getting great help from @boxcarblue and some significant donations from other Steemit community members for the monthly prize fund. There are some exciting announcements to come for this challenge in the coming weeks. Stay tuned.

@MadMan198
Hi. I am sculptor, toy customizer living in Dublin. This is my first week at Steemit so very small fish, but planning to stay here for a while. Hope to meet you in one of the meetups. Happy to see there is more of us :)
My whole channel is almost Ireland in one way shape... God, I miss home...
A great meet up Saturday looking forward to the next one
It was good to meet you Daithi.
You to, where is the destination tonight for your pub review. It is a great idea those @steemit meetups it makes the whole social media aspect so much better....
I didn't make it last night but maybe tonight or tomorrow night I'll head to the Swan pub. Another Victorian gem in the city.
One of the aspects of steemit that sets it apart for me is the interesting people on it, even better if you get to meetup with them. 😀 It was good chatting on Saturday.
Good on team Dublin!
FYI Under @eroche 's culture vulture photo his name is spelled wrong. Should be @eroche not @ruche.
Good spot..
Thanks for catching that. I have updated it.
