The Theme For SPC27 Will Be

Censorship

Suggested by user @marieta88

This is a more subjective/conceptual theme, so you can attempt to show the theme however you like. I’ll be looking at the aesthetics of the photo and how in my opinion it fits the theme of ‘censorship’.

NSFW images must be labelled NSFW in the title and in the tags

Bonus

The image that generates [meaningful] discussion, has the most [meaningful] comments, will get a special mention and feature. In the event that my winning picks are also among the top commented on, I’ll choose another to feature that generated discussion / comments..

DO NOT repost a previous entry.


Prizes

These are made possible by the support of the community, and donations by @berniesanders the official sponsor of the Steemit Photo Challenge.

First Place — 35 SBD

Second Place — 25 SBD

Third Place — 15 SBD

Thanks again for the contest and the new theme, it is inspiring and can hardly believe this is a theme in itself. does it actually need to have the tapes or barriers across to show the censorship or does the subject itself and only itself suggest a topic of censorship?

Congratulations to all the contestants and winners as well. All for one and one for all! Namaste :)

I leave it up to you all! A little write-up on the image goes a long way.

Congrats to winners although I thought a lot of entries were more silhouettes than shadows!

ha I was thinking the same thing. Things get murky in shadows, silhouettes and reflections

Hooray! Thank you)))))))) I jump up to the ceiling)))

Thank you)) I am very pleased)))

Thank you very much)))

Дякую, дякую, дякую)))

wow cool, so who is the winner, and I extend congratulations to the winner. maybe I have not been lucky, all right on the other occasion certainly ..
