Discovering Venice with alequandro! #15 - I've been in the most beautiful bookshop in the world! "Acqua Alta" Bookstore

Lovely post about a bookstore in Venice, Italy. It's a nice travel tip for when you might be visiting Venice, and are in need of special spots to visit. The bookstore really looks artistic, and has a special feel to it. There are even some nice pictures included in the post.

Beach Sunset Watercolor Painting

Looking at this watercolour painting of a beach sunset, I instantly get the summer feeling. The colours that are used are very nice. You can even see the progress of the painting inside the post!

Noah Goes on Safari

This is such a cool post. Little Noah is three years old and loves to be outdoors. In this post you can read the report of his very first safari. He saw plenty of animals, and it was a great adventure being the "main spotter". This post is a must read.

Travelog 16 | India Series: Admirable Mugal Architecture in Red Sandstone

A very nice post about Fatehpur Sikri in India, completely made out of red sandstone. The pictures are quite impressive, showing many details in and outside the building. I think if you're ever in the neighborhood you should visit this place for sure.

digitalis - grassphoppers #0806

Even if you don't fancy grasshoppers in real life, you should still have a look at these pictures. The pictures show you how a grasshopper looks up close, and I must say they look much cooler than you would expect.

What a great range of interesting selections from @anouk.nox. Check out each of these amazing articles and let their authors know what you think! For submitting these excellent articles and commentary, @anouk.nox earns 5 SBD.

Submission Requirements

On to the submission requirements for The Daily Sneak:

1. You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
2. All articles chosen for curation need to have been published within the last 5 days before your entry. It may take time for me to publish your curation, and curated articles need to be within the reward window when your submission is published.
3. You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will not be accepted. We also check for plagiarism and only highlight original content.
4. Selected posts should have less than $50 in total rewards and have not previously been curated by The Daily Sneak.
5. We try to spread the love around, so while selections from authors that have been highlighted before are welcome, they might not be included if the author's last inclusion was recent. Similarly, if you include two articles from the same author in one submission, we will typically highlight only one of the two.
6. Be sure to include your personal bio for me to introduce you to readers, and make sure that each selection has commentary. This can be just a few sentences about why you think the selection is worth our attention, or what is great about it - something that will make people want to click through the headline and check out the actual article. English is preferred, but other languages will be considered as long as English translation is included.
7. Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1
8. Including image links to the source article is not required (and we prefer to leave some mystery if photography is highlighted and the article has only one photo.) However, we like to include images in The Daily Sneak, and not including any image links may decrease the likelihood of your submissions being published.

If you include more than 2 articles in your submission and not all are approved for publication, your submission may still be published into an edition of The Daily Sneak, as long as at least 2 articles are approved. This could happen for several different reasons. If you are unsure why an article was cut, please review the submission guidelines again. If you are still unsure, feel free to ask politely why it was cut.

Submission Reward

A brief biography of each guest curator will be included in the edition that uses their submission. In addition, each guest curator will receive 1 SBD for each article from their submission that is highlighted in The Daily Sneak. That's up to 5 SBD for each accepted submission!

Right now @thedailysneak's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation. Why do we pay so much for guest curation? We believe that quality curation is very important to Steem. Paying our curators well encourages them to spend more time reviewing content and picking out the best pieces!
