The Succ


Images property of @cosimo

First up we have an original story written in a very interesting style. Composed from lots of short sentences "The succ" is a really creative and fun story guaranteed to keep you occupied for a few minutes. I read it with great pleasure. Here's a little part to get you interested:

Went to a concert. Show next to a show. Everyone had been in line for the other one. Hated that band.

Another time telling me I wanted the wrong thing.

Show was goin' fine. Like to go it alone. Stag has its own appeals, ya know. Prolly you dunno. Anyways...

Fine with it. Being alone. Watched the show. Cowboys and gothy chicks all the same all around. Show was belly-dancer front-men. Front-ladies I guess you'd call 'em.

Electronic soundin'. Dunno what to call it. A smart girl once told me the beat was middle-eastern, or she said somethin' like that.

Tiks and toks, clicks, motor-noises. Industrial and kinda chill. Juss' sounded good, ya know. -@cosimo

This author's profile is mostly about "fast fiction", as he calls it. It contains lots of interesting sci-fi stories with less than 1000 words so it won't take too much of your time to go ahead and check some of them out.

I'm back! After a few months I'm back with some photographs.

For our second post we have some excellent in motion photography by @segapema. Personally I think it requires a lot of skill to capture the perfect moment, both from the photographer and the model and in this post they definitely both delivered. The photos are simply beautiful.

The main idea was to portray a jacket to obtain fashion-style photographs. One of the things that worked quite well when taking the photos, is that the model is a dancer. He incorporated mobility into the body and we managed to take some particular photographs. As always, I am a lover of fleeting moments. That means I was almost always with the camera in my eye rescuing as much as I could. -@segapema

This author has been away from a Steemit for a long while and came back with a great post. We are hoping to see more of his work, the sooner, the better!

All of Me — Jazz improvization (Guitar + Sax + Doggo)


Images property of @gulia.peito

Improvisation music is something that most people really appreciate and enjoy. The jazz improv by @gulia.peito is a perfect example! A very fun combination of the sax and the guitar is what makes this tune perfect. Make sure you give it a listen!

This improvisation was recorded as part of a contest #ImprovizChallenge. During the playing, a dog entered the room and became part of improvisation :)
You can participate in the contest as well. Use the tag improvizchallenge and I will support you! -@gulia.peito

This author has been posting on various topics, from nature and food, to cars and photography, but lately he has been dealing with music. And I must say, there are a lot of songs posted that are worth listening to.

Aurora - An Original Short Story by K H Simmons

Here we have another fictional story "Aurora." From the very beginning you can easily see that it was written by a highly talented person with exceptional narrating skill. The stories detail and structure are just amazing. I won't say what's the stories plot in order to avoid any spoiling, so I highly recommend you to read it yourself. Here's just a little bit to get you interested:

Pale sunlight seeped through the high windows, illuminating the golden threads of her hair. Isaac leaned back and pulled his goggles on top of his head. He rubbed his eyes. He had been awake all night. Exhaustion was fighting to settle in, he wouldn’t let it. He pushed it aside and examined her in the new light. She was beautiful. Every curve was smooth. Every detail was pristine. If anything, she was even more beautiful than when he first met her. -@madals

This author is an exceptional graphic designer and you can find much more of their amazing work on their Steemit profile!

"Hello, Curious fellows~ Allow me first to deliver this allegory.
I do, like many of you, appreciate the comforts of everyday routine,
the security of familiar,
the stillness of repetition. I enjoy them as much as anybody.

But let's take some time out of our daily lives to sit down and have a little chat. -@curious3301

This author doesn't have many posts on his profile and has started posting again fairly recently after a long break. He came back with an idea to create an something similar to an adventure game that anyone can play out in the real world. If this kind of topics interest you, it won't hurt to read the last couple of his posts.
