Dear Steemians,
By organizing this #contest I wanted to contribute to the further development & growth of the #Steemit community!
Fortunately & finally there were some great #self-portraits in the 8th week & you can see them here: @careassaktart/results-of-the-8th-week-of-self-portrait-photography-contest
These entries are a refreshment & a stimulus for me to continue with the #contest! Thank you so much for participating @brittandjosie & @wesphilbin!
INSTRUCTIONS:
Be creative & make self-portraits not in that common way as the trendy "selfies" but in a high quality way partly describing yourself & your way of life. Every each of us has many different roles to play in life: worker, sportsman, soldier, writer, driver, lover, husband, father, wife, mother, artist, model, waitress, lawyer, dancer, actress, scientist, doctor, singer, musician, politician, manager, nurse, porn star, prostitute, gigolo, pimp... or some kind of an imaginary character - somebody who you would like to be... There is plenty of inspiration for the theme!
Nudes are also very appreciated & welcomed as well as the conceptual & art #photography.
#Photo can be full color, b&w & #monochrome tones.
How to apply for the #contest:
Use a #self-portrait tag as one of your tags in the post.
Clearly mention the #self-portrait photo contest in your post title or post body & tag me in your post - @careassaktart (As this will help to grow this contest). For example: "This is my entry for the #self-portrait photo contest by @careassaktart"
Ad a short story / explanation / description to the photo.
Your #self-portraits must be your original work as well as the text following! Stolen content will be immediately reported to @steemcleaners.

Example:
Space Travel: Jupiter
From Mars to Jupiter I slumped, tired and drained, feeling the same like when I share my crazy ideas and those pigheaded, narrow-minded, unconscious energetic vampires stare and gaze surprisingly at me, limited within their skull and their system, manipulated and seemingly (un)free.. Shaken and upset, their postulates are falling down like a house of cards. They firmly hold and believe in seemingly solid and safe structures of the material world, without trying to understand other worlds and dimensions. Their capitalist God suddenly becomes nothing more than their own bodies – transient and imperfect manifestation of the Great Holy Spirit in which He questions Himself, but you and me as well!
Their insecure and unsophisticated vibrations and fuss reach my sixth sense. They used to affect me, but now I’m immune, resistant to stupidity, even though I take the bait sometimes and, like a real idiot, make the same mistake again. But I forgive myself, and others, I accept, love, respect, and don’t disturb the peace.
Getting serious, pedaling to Jupiter, to that huge and wise titan, carried with love and enthusiasm because whatever happened, life will be beautiful, and stay this way, with or without us!
I’m very grateful on this cognition which was granted upon me, and I guess I deserved it, probably.
Space Travel is my multimedia project which appeared to me in the spring of 2014 when I came back from India & was visiting my friend in Zadar. I borrowed her bicycle & drove myself all the way to the interactive installation called "Greetings To The Sun" created by the Croatian architect Nikola Bašić... & then it struck me! Suddenly the words were coming to me - the words above - following the 1st portrait - The Sun - out of the Space Travel series...
It would be nice to have a #sponsor who would #delegate some SP so that this #contest can develop further more & that the prizes can be bigger...
By #delegating SP to me for the purpose of this #contest, you become a #sponsor / supporter & you will be mentioned in every next #self-portrait connected post of mine!
I'm looking forward to see your entries!
Please resteem & upvote cause in this way you're surely helping this initiative!
Thanks!
