The #33 round of Hive Art Contest: Vote now!

🌞 Vacation Mode: Round 33 Brings a New Voting Experience! 🌞

We received an amazing 107 submissions this round – thank you all for your creativity and participation! This time, as announced, we’re piloting a new contest format: instead of voting for all entries, we've curated a (completely subjective!) shortlist of especially striking artworks for you to vote on. We hope this makes voting easier and more fun for everyone!

Special shoutout to @bananzell, who earned a whopping FIVE nominations this week. Huge applause for such an incredibly creative and productive week! 👏

💡 Tip for future rounds: nominations are based on the main/cover image of your post, so always choose a photo that best represents your work!

Cast your votes in the comments under this post!

You have three votes to distribute:

• 3 points for your favorite artwork,

• 2 points for your second choice,

• 1 point for your third choice.

Please be precise when indicating how many points you are awarding to a given participant. Some votes are unclear, and it's difficult to guess whether the numbers 1, 2, and 3 represent the ranking position or the points. :)

Don't forget to include the author’s name and the title of the post, the number or the link to the post in your comment. In case of imprecise information, the vote will be assigned to the first submission of the participant.
