Hi my dear Steemians!

As you know, I love photography and contests ^^ For the first time, I won the 4th place of The Petals Contests: #yellowflowerday. Our weekly selection 16. The Winners!. Thank you @petals =D!!! I am so happy !!!

I love this kind of competition because you can discover the exceptional work of the Steemians and reward it. It's also another way to interact with new people who share the same passion.
By the way, I'm thinking about a new contest so stay connected my friends!

Today I'm a challenger and this is my entry for the #yellowflowerday contest by @petals! This is a wonderful idea of two amazing photographers @adrianobalan and @sardrt. To know more about this contest, click here! ^^.

I love to find this kind of wonderful gift on my way. I took this picture yesterday when I passed by a small village called El Far dโ€™Empordร .

In the heart of the Empordร  plain, very close to Figueres, thereโ€™s a little town called El Far d'Empordร . The unassuming, simple and quiet nature of the town is embodied in one of its most prominent treasures: the Romanesque church of Sant Martรญ del Far. It's said that it formed part of the old castle, set atop a hill, at a time when the town was called Farus.

I am lucky to live near the Costa Brava, a Spanish region whose fauna and flora is very rich and diverse! I discover species that we have no or little in the north of France (which I am from). I take this opportunity to share them with you =)

There is a multitude of beautiful flowers to see and I wanted to capture his image to keep it in my mind and share it with you for this contest! Flowers put on color and love in our lives, we must take care of them!

It is not easy to photograph something alive like this flower that moves with the wind. But it's a good exercise to practice patience ^^. This photo was taken with my smartphone Samsung Galaxy S7 because at the moment I do not have professional equipment but it will come ...

Thank you @petals for organizing this kind of contest I find it really fun!
Have a nice day and Good Luck to all the challengers!

I NEED YOUR HELP STEEMIANS!

As promised I will organize a new contest soon! I would like this time to increase the earnings to have more rewarded winners. For example, a big price for the 1st one but also prices for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th.

I saw the quality of the photos in my last contest and I must say that I was very frustrated about not being able to give more prizes.

I saw that there is sponsorship for other contests here in Steemit. I would like to understand the way these contests receive these funds.

That's why, I need your help my friends! Feel free to contact me on Steemit.chat if :

  • You are actually sponsoring contests or want to help with me with next one.
  • You know the way the sponsorships are made and can help me to understand it better.
  • You know Steemians that usually bring funds to the contests prize pools.

I hope in a close future to be able to build big prize pools and bring these contest to the next step.

The goal is to reward quality work on this platform. Of course this time I will be more demanding on the rules to avoid the plagiarism of photos. I saw that it was done a lot in the competitions and I refuse to reward work that would not be original!

Thank you for your support and see you soon for a new contest !!!

Primero, felicidades por tan hermosa foto! En mi paรญs existen muchos girasoles, cada uno mรกs bello que el otro.


Yo tengo una teorรญa del por quรฉ estas flores, los girasoles, siempre se orientan segรบn el lugar donde estรฉ el sol conforme transcurre el dรญa.


Yo desde niรฑa me hice una idea romรกntica de por quรฉ sucedรญa eso, es una historia tan linda que cree:


Cuando un girasol estรก listo para abrir sus pรฉtalos no existe nada que lo detenga, acumula sus ganas de conocer de donde proviene el brillo y la energรญa que le nutre, desde que es una semilla sueรฑa con descubrir ese misterio.
Y cuando llega el dรญa, mientras los primeros rayos del sol le rozan sus pรฉtalos, se enamora perdidamente.
Dรญa tras dรญa, puedes ver como el girasol adapta sus pรฉtalos persiguiendo el trayecto del sol, desde el alba hasta el atardecer, porque el amor se toca con el alma y esa fuerza magnรฉtica que nuestro corazรณn proyecta nos hace seguir a aquello que se ama.


Postdata: Creo que harรฉ un post de esto :)

Here in my beloved Venezuela, we call it sunflower, and those photographs of you from those flowers are really beautiful, for me that sunflower is perfect, and speaking of your idea of wanting to have more knowledge, of how to help get more opportunity to reward the contestants, how I would like to help you friend, but I have little time in this platform and I do not have much knowledge about how to acquire the advantages of being able to reward everyone you want, hopefully you will get it, I love photography, I love to participate, I have won three times in contests not as talented as yours, but if I won and I feel like having a privileged place among others, I would like to participate in those that I want to do in the future, thanks for the opportunity.

Congratz my friend !!
Very nice photography!!

Beatifull and more Beautifull!!!!
