Hi everyone! Today's the day... the beginning of the second Abandoned Shit Weekly Contest! I'm really excited about it and I hope some of you Steemsters are too. We had a great turnout last week for the maiden voyage and hopefully we can keep that momentum going. Lets get right into it!

The Contest:

  This is NOT a photography contest.  The subject matter is what's being judged with the Abandoned Shit Weekly contest, not one's skills with a camera.  Honestly, I just want to see some cool abandoned shit.  lol  HOWEVER, as with any photograph, the "wow factor" can certainly be enhanced with a technically sound execution.  Simply put, winners won't be chosen strictly on artistry.  

The Prizes:

1st Place = 20.000 SBD
2nd Place = 10.000 SBD
3rd Place = 5.000 SBD

The Theme:

This week's theme = Homes! The photos must be of abandoned residential living spaces. Houses, cabins, shacks etc. I'll even allow nursing homes, orphanages, and condos. Just somewhere that a person once called "home".

The Rules:

Rule #1 = Your abandoned shit photo must be posted using the tag #aswcontest for one of your tags.  This is crucial so that your entry can be seen/found!
Rule #2 = Your photo must be taken by YOU.
Rule #3 = Only ONE entry per user, per week. Save some content for future contests!
Rule #4 = Tell us what we're looking at!  You don't have to write a novel, but let us know what the picture is of, and where you found it.  That's the most interesting part! Equipment and camera settings can be included at your discretion, but is not necessary.
Rule #5 = Stick to the weekly theme!. 

The Time:

When = New ASW contests will start on TUESDAYS and will end on SUNDAY.  Winners will be announced on Monday with awards distributed then as well. I figure it's a good way to start the week!

The HELP:

HELP! - I'd really like this contest to become an established, weekly feature.  Resteeming the official contest announcement post here would be a huge help in getting the word out, though you do not HAVE to in order to participate in the contest.  I'm just asking as a favor.  Also, just mentioning the contest in/on your entry post would help a lot!

That's it!  Let's see some cool abandoned stuff! Good Luck!

^^^This is the photo used for the ASW Contest logo above. It was taken during the winter of 2016 in Iceland and is an old abandoned farm house. I looked into the history of this place, but most information was in Icelandic. One thing I did read is that home has ties to "the last sorcerer of Iceland".

Thanks for joining in on this!

pleasure's mine. I too have a bit of a thing for abandoned stuff or urban temporal treasure as I like to call it. I'm just waiting for the theme shoes next :) or toys

Do you prefer entries to be posted as single photos here in comments, or written up in a post? Thanks again for hosting this contest!

A written up post as it's easier for me to search all entries by just using the #aswcontest tag. Plus it helps to get the word out about the contest. :)

Love this contest - especially as it gives everyone a chance!! Always had a soft spot for old / unloved things so I’ll check if I’ve got any pics of homes!

Cant wait to see what you dig up!

My entry for this awesome abandoned shit contest :-)

Thank you @customnature for running such a
cool contest!

Can i post pics about a abandoned hotel?

Well, I'd hold off on that one if you can. Within the next two, the theme will be "commercial/industrial" and a hotel would be perfect!

Oh, thanks. So, i going to participate on the next week.

Cool! Did you change the tag?! ASW or AWcontest?

Woah! Good catch. No I just typoed it. Fixed now. #aswcontest :) Edit- actually, it's not letting me fix it. dammit

Yeah you can't change the first tag!!

Ah well. This one post will have to live with the messed up tag. lol

You'll have to get your abandoned shit together. 😎

Sorry for the smartass joke

Voted!!! Best!!!
