HiveDiscoMod Curation Highlights June 29, 2025

I think if you watched the animation “Cloudy with a Chance of Falling Meatballs,” then you would understand me better. After watching that cartoon it felt like a world was opened up to me and my siblings, a food world different from the typical Nigerian food world. We were salivating while watching that cartoon. As kids, my siblings and I developed one unanimous belief—American food was the gold standard ...

Image generated using Meta AI Hmmm! If you have never fallen for a man with six pack abs, a phonics accent, and a Range Rover parked confidently at the entrance of Bokku supermarket—a tall, clean suited guy standing by the car, staring at you like his life depended on it and grinning at you with teeth so white that you squinted—still, you kept your cool and dignity. Please clap for yourself because you definitely need a standing ovation. Oh boy! ...

By the time Tony jogged onto the pitch, the others had already started warming up. Kenny was the first to see him panting down the field with his small bag in one hand and a football boot in the other. “Ah, our kitchen husband finally arrived! ” Kenny shouted ...

I had an epiphany last night. It occurred when I ran into a friend and her friend, both of whose high school aged children I tutor. One of them was apologizing profusely for her children being difficult. I had no idea what she was talking about ...

Hey everyone, it's time to help making the Cycling Community more active again, sharing another one of my trips and in this case, it's the one I made last Thursday since it's my regular day off of work, I have a minimum of two training days every week, mostly Thursdays and Sundays and while the weather was awesome I needed to wait out the rain that day. When it's raining all day I don't mind going out anyway but when I have a choice, dry conditions are better.. When I was planning my trip, with the South Western wind in mind I planned a 33km route with the option to extend it to the next village, Arkel so I could circle back to my own village taking one of the many dykes called 'de Lingedijk' but this would make the distance a whopping 43km, not a lot for experienced cyclist but with around 6 weeks of cycling activity, I'm still a beginner soooo... that could be too much, right? ...

Today I once again present some of the last remaining images from my last trip to Ciudad Bolívar, Bolívar State, Venezuela. I took a tour with my wife, visiting several important points in the city. The historic center, which in my opinion, possesses a magical quality perfect for photography, thanks to all its scenes, its architectural style, and the people who are part of, so to speak, this visual universe, both in scenes and in the environment itself. So, here we see the different reasons for this photoshoot ...

I have found some photos that I already had prepared for a post but I had forgotten, in the same way that I usually forget to edit and share other shots with you, It is something that has to do with my mind, my little time or the day to day problems that absorb me. I have checked each of these photos and I think it is worth showing them, there are some more interesting than others and have different themes. What we will find most here are buildings and some perspectives, counterpred. But there is also some street photography in different neighborhoods of the City of Buenos Aires ...

Hello everyone, Is it friday fish day in your country too? I think that's a Catholic thing. Catholics didn't eat meat because it was seen as penance. That's because jesus died at the cross on a friday ...

Hello, everyone at Hive, Hive account@suisver here with a new post for the channel. Today I'm bringing you a story that happened to me recently. One day like any other, I'm getting ready for work and notice that my vehicle, which is my bicycle, has a low front tire. So, I grab the tire inflation tool, which we call a "pump" here in Venezuela ...

In my last post I mentioned that finally after several days of heavy rain I had the opportunity to go out to the park to take some pictures, so here are some more from that day that I want to share. As we are in rainy season it is difficult to have control over the light when shooting with natural light, the clouds come and help us but also at times affect our photography, that's why I decided to use an aperture of F/1.8 and let the camera control the shutter speed, the ISO I was moving it as I needed. Over there is a curious iguana that apparently was not afraid of me, but as soon as it saw the camera it started to run away, I guess most animals have a feeling that if someone points at them, they should run away, better be sure. Continuing with the iguanas, right in the Deer area I found this iguana that saw me but didn't move either, to be honest I know it was because they hadn't warmed its blood yet, even so I tried hard not to disturb it and I shot behind a fence, you can see it despite my efforts, I could have tried a better angle but surely I would have scared it away, and that would be disrespectful to nature on my part ...

Every year around the end of June, I like to attend a festival known as Sheffield Steam Fair and take along a camera. I can't quite work out how or why I'm interested in this sort of thing but I think it is something to do with my grandfather who used to be obsessed with all things traction engines. This is a sort of homage to him even though he passed away more than 20 years ago. Sheffield Steam Fair is known for an abundance of traction engines, a coal powered steam engine used in agriculture and civil engineering applications ...

A few days ago, I saw a post by my friend bitcoinman referring to this community and, above all, to this great contest, a very interesting initiative for those of us who love photography and, above all, digital creation, as well as the participation of my friend Melinda, so I decided to take part in this wonderful initiative. \\\I mainly made a summary of the images to be represented, combining them all into one and thus creating this interesting team, which I hope will catch your attention and encourage you to open the post. \\\ From the countless things I have observed about the color pink and its different shades, it was very easy for me to choose a few, but I think these are my favorites because they are images that represent moments in my life that have been important or at least have left a mark on me. Without further ado, here is the first image ...

Have a blessed sunday everyone. I came across with Hive account@melinda010100 blog and I read there that there's an on going PINK contest which is posting 5 photo with pink colors and publish it in Photo essay community using the photo\ essay and it will lasts until the end of this month, so I want to join and give it a try. A beautiful orchids showing us its beauty and telling us to keep smiling and be optimistic in life. "I maybe alone here, but my thorns will protect me from harm" ...

Hello, dear community, thank you for having me. The issue of assigning blue for the boy and pink for the girl always seemed very sexist to me, however along the way I have learned that I was being prejudiced with that concept, since the color pink directly influences our senses. I suggest you take a careful look, keep an open mind. At the sight of the color pink, our senses perceive a reliable environment that can cause calm and relaxation, as well as reduce stress and anxiety ...
