Another week of cool abandoned stuff is kicking off on Steemit! We have another brand new theme and I can not wait to see what you guys come up with! Let's begin The Abandoned Shit Weekly Contest №.12:

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 = 10.000 SBD
2nd Place = 5.000 SBD
3rd Place = 2.500 SBD


The Theme:


This week's theme = Collapsed/Burnt-Down! Your photo of an abandoned structure or object that has completely caved in, or burnt down. This theme will likely be another tricky one as it's sort of specific. A collapsed house? A burnt down building? Maybe a burnt up car?? Whatever it is, it has to be mostly collapsed, or somehow affected by fire.


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. If you take an imagine from the internet and use it as your entry into this contest, you will be disqualified and I will flag 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 at 11:58pm EST 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!

^^^Here's the photo I used for the contest logo above. It was taken at Death Valley at the ghost town of Rhyolite. It was an old bank or hotel and, as you can see, is about 75% on the ground these days.

Thanks @customnature for another episode of #aswcontest !

So funny that this is the theme because I was doing some exploring in Valley Center, CA last weekend and came across an abandoned house with a crumbling garage. A newer "for sale" sign had been leaned against the front of the structure and is quite literally keeping the whole thing from collapsing completely.

Awesome. It could have also fit the last theme of "water"!

Thanks! Yes, it is true, but You know how it is.. always have to pick just one ;).

Who knew you could make Collapsed and or Burnt Down look so beautiful!

Hello. Is there any reputation minimum to enter this contest?

Nope! Just follow the rules. If you post a photo you didn't take yourself and just found online, I will flag the shit out of you though.

Great! Thank you for participating. :)

This is such a great contest, I will try to enter this one, missed a lot of good challenges. thanks for your contest @customnature

Don't worry! The old contest themes are all going to be reused very soon.

I'll have to visit my aunt's place who happened to have a fire burning a hundred houses, thanks God they were not included but they were to close to the fire when it was put off. Can have an entry for this.

Definitely sound like it'd meet the contest perimeters, but boy, that's sad. Glad your aunt is okay!

I really like to see your contest I will follow it
