Last week, I had the privilege of being a judge for
Black and White Photography Contest.
If you’re not familiar with the competition, it’s something that anyone can join by simply submitting original work that is categorized with the tag #bwphotocontest. To make your work easier to distinguish from photographs being submitted to different competitions, I also recommend using the current theme of ’ competition in the title of your post.
This is the second time that I have had the honor of judging a competition on Steemit, and while choosing a winner is no easy task, looking through all of the entries and seeing the truly high caliber of the work that is shared on Steemit is very rewarding.
One thing I especially love about being a competition judge is that I always seem to find at least one really great content creator that I may never have come across had it not been for the responsibility of having to thoroughly check all of the posts entered into the contest.
While being a judge for last week’s black and white photo contest, I came across two very promising new Steemians, one of whom I would like to introduce to you now. If you haven’t looked at his blog yet, I really recommend that you do.
How is this guy not already famous?
That’s the first thing I asked myself after looking at his blog.
Someone who quit working for Google to spend a year traveling around the world and who found a way to save $25,000 in four months to do so, someone who was raised in multiple countries while growing up and has been both a stuntman and a Bboy in his past lives, someone who now spends his free time pursuing photography and free diving, with all of these interesting experiences and stories to tell, I can’t imagine how will not be a leading Steemian six months from now.
I expect a lot from him and am really looking forward to seeing more of his photographs and can’t wait to hear about the year he spent traveling around the world.
Do yourself a favor and have a look at his series OneBreathOnePhoto.
ONE photo at a time, of ONE moment in time, on ONE breath of air.
