This is the 53rd Edition of the PhotoChain challenge. The PhotoChain Challenge is a blockchain-like photography contest. If you would like to know more about, read the PhotoChain Challenge INTRODUCTION Post on HIVE. There, I explain the functioning of the contest and how to participate. I changed the rules of the winner prize since the last edition.
In this post, I'll announce the 2 winners of the 52nd Edition of the Contest. Within the next 48 hours, I'll reward both of them with 1 HIVE SBI - as explained in the rules - and will post in the comment section of the 52nd EDITION the confirmation of transactions.
The 52nd Edition counted only 3 (Three) valid participants...
The two Key-Subjects were:
Plate and Gun
These are the 2 Winners of the 52nd Edition:
with an ancient cannon near a colored plate
The personal subject is Key
with combative intentions...at least at the table
The personal subject is Red
As I promised, I will award the 2 winners with 1 HIVE token each, and I will award other 2 photos that I appreciated during the edition.
Today, only one honorable mention:
Thank you EVERYONE for participating in this week's contest!
I also invite you in the new edition with all the Steem and Hive participants 
This is a WEEKLY PHOTOGRAPHY Contest.
This is for EVERYONE on the Hive platform.
2 HIVE + 2 HIVE SBI PRIZE
No required UPVOTE, REHIVE, FOLLOW or BID to participate.
I explained in the Introduction Post that everyone can participate by submitting his/her own photo in the comment section. The photo must contain the 2 Key-Subjects that will be communicated in each post of the New Edition and another key-subject at your choice (contained in the photo). I also explained there how the key-subject will change and the criteria with which I'll choose them.
This week's edition is the:
The KEY-SUBJECTS for this week are:
It seems a simple couple this time. After a few participants editions, maybe will have again a lot of them. At least, I hope so...
GOOD LUCK!
I'll write a post for the weekly edition start, and I'll announce the Winners of the Previous Week Edition. There I'll communicate the 2 Key-Subjects.
One entry each participant
NO PLAGIARISM!
The duration of the contest: 7 days, from the start announcement post to 3 hours before the Post Payout Time.
GIFs are allowed only 1) if the duration is less or equal to 10 seconds; and 2) if the key-subjects remain in the foreground for the whole duration of the GIF.
Editing is allowed, but not creations such as graphic design: this is a PHOTOGRAPHY contest.
Every Color Cover is allowed, including Black and White.
Every Theme is allowed: no censorship except for extremely explicit content. The nsfw contents are allowed, but I will not utilize the nsfw tag for the PhotoChain Post: so, if I choose a nsfw photo as a winner, I will not insert it as an image in the official post (only as a mention or a link to the original post)
IMPORTANT: I invited the participants to use fairly large categories as subjects so as not to sabotage participation. You haven't to use proper names (of cities, places, mountains, species, etc)
For example:
Don't utilize the subject snow bear but only animals; naturally I will give more importance to the photo of an animal that is not often photographed compared to a simple domestic cat.
REMEMBER! The more general the category used as a subject, the greater the participation in the competition, the greater the prizes in the future.
Finally, I'll advance with the prizes awarding 2 days approx after the finish of the weekly challenge. I'll write the transaction ID in the winners' announcements post. Excuse me for the delay I sometimes encounter in the transactions.
