In case you haven't heard, @thedarkhorse is hosting a weekly curation contest which has proven to be a huge amount of fun every week. I'm proud to be able to say I've been in it since the beginning and it has become the highlight of the week - to find three undervalued bloggers.
My criteria has become insanely high, I must admit. In addition to the criteria imposed by @thedarkhorse himself. I spend a lot of time each week looking for posts that blow me away. This is important as I'm not only finding people to curate, but I'm also looking for someone who makes me look good in my endorsement.
Without further ado, I move on to my selections this week.
1 - @chuchoafonso
@chuchoafonso/la-avejita-fotografia
Not only has this Spanish-speaking/writing (on my PC, I just have to right-click the text to be hooked up with the translator) blogger captured an image that would make any photographer proud, but he included a piece of poetry with it!
Looking down his blog, we can expect more of the same in the future. (He only joined in May! - currently Rep 33 - I think we'll bump him up a few more places, what do you think?)
2 - @marcocarrasquel
@marcocarrasquel/pasteles-de-tomate-y-queso-horneados
Another Spanish-speaking/writing entry this week... I didn't choose it because of the great photos, but because of how hungry it makes me feel to read about how he made this awesome dish!
Looking down his blog, I don't see any more food (shame), but I do see an interesting variety of posts that would appeal to most people. I'd love to see more food though - he must be an amazing cook! (Currently rep 41.)
3 - @nightcreature
@nightcreature/who-am-i-really-do-social-terminologies-define-us
My final entry took a bit more work, but I finally found another brand new blogger! This is her third post ever and she's already really let us into her wonderful mind, letting us know what she's thinking about and believe me, she is a thinker! (And unlike most beginners, she's correctly sourcing her Pixabay images already - huge bonus in my book.)
I'm really excited to find this lady as I think she's going to be a star. (So, everyone invite her to your Discord groups - starting with the Pay It Forward group!
So, there you have it - my three bloggers for this week's Pay It Forward contest. Thank you (as always) to @thedarkhorse for hosting - and thanks to all the judges, a hard job, I know!
