(Google translate from Czech)

I have been considering for a long time whether to keep the current scheme of contests at ANC or change it.
It seems to me like a waste of time and energy to announce a competition in which no one applies.

Greetings to all Amazing Nature Community supporters

As of this day, there is a change in the announcement of competitions.
I will limit the Thematic Challenge and add two weeks for the FREE TOPIC.

So you can take part in the FREE TOPIC open competition on the first, second and third Mondays of the month, and I will keep the last Monday of the month for the Thematic Challenge.
I will keep this scheme until the end of this year and then decide whether or not to continue with the Thematic Challenge.

But now is the time to explore and observe the nature around you.

Someone likes flowers, another collects interesting stones, and another can search for and pass on interesting information about the observed object.

All this and much more has its place in this competition. What you choose for your contest article is up to you. There will always be enough readers who will appreciate your efforts.
And of course we will also appreciate your efforts within the competition.

It's probably unnecessary, but I'll still offer you general topics for your article :-)

Post topics can include any of the following:

• Botany
• Zoology
• Geology
• Landscape
• Philosophy
• ... Surprise us !!!

To be sure, I would like to remind you of the rules :-)

Rules for participation in the ANC contest:

• Publish your contribution IN AN AMAZING NATURAL COMMUNITY. You can also use TAG #amazingnature if you want
• CLEARLY state that your entry is an ENTRY in this competition.
• All images must be your own. You can use an amazing nature banner if you like or you can create your own.
• In the TEXT Indicate why these pictures represent YOUR AMAZING NATURE. This is an ESSENTIAL part of this competition – 200 WORDS MINIMUM
• Place a link to your post IN COMMENTARY. You can add an image if you want. It is NECESSARY because I have to publish a link in Discord on Sunday, 5 days later for voting and also for my own compilation purposes.
• The entry window is open ~ 5 DAYS. Pay attention to - CLOSED in the title. Pay attention to the time bar (PeakD)

Prizes to win:
1st: 3 NC
2nd: 2 NC
3rd: 1 NC
I will introduce all participants in the entry section of the announcements, which will be published about a week later on Tuesday (according to my schedule, this may change). This way you will have a nice compilation of all.

How are winners selected?
The entire DNA community will vote for the winners. That's why we created a special competition channel #contest-entries in DNA Discord (Amazing Nature Contest). Here I will publish a post with the announcement including the winners (Announcement) EVERY MONDAY together with all your contributions (Contributions) EVERY SUNDAY. Each DNA member will be able to assign a "voting emoji" under the items for 24 HOURS. In the end, the lucky winners are three of them. In case of a draw, I will join as a judge.

Note: The above channels on the DNA discord are for voting only! Do not post links to your competition articles and photos here!
