I’m sorry to hear about the passing of @przemyslawdygdon, official member #150 of the @PhotographersCorner.
On the DeSo platform, he was a prolific developer and creator, contributing several notable projects:
⭐️ @BirthBlockNFT: This project provided users with a unique “birth certificate” NFT, representing the DeSo blockchain block in which their username was first registered. 
⭐️ Generativ: A platform focused on gamification and generative NFTs, allowing users to mint unique digital assets.
⭐️ WhatsMy: An analytics tool offering insights into various DeSo activities.
His engagement with our community indicated that he valued photography as a medium for expression and connection within the DeSo ecosystem.
His official number #150 has been retired. Our condolences 💐 go to his family & friends here on DeSo.
For a more in-depth understanding of his contributions and thoughts, have a look at this interview by @Matreshka & @ReadyPlayerOne :

Have you ever been licked by a giraffe?
This is a photo from a second before the giraffe licked my whole face.

Congrats 🎈 @ZORAN !
He is the first Arena Photography Contest Champion!
He will pick the next theme on The Arena. This makes him a champion on two different blockchains! Historic!
His caption for this photo reads:
“ Life is the Beauty of Imperfection.
I captured this moment on the streets of Lisbon, Portugal. A scruffy young Gypsy boy—out of school—played his accordion, its keys worn and missing. Beside him, his little mutt held a donation basket gently in its mouth. A bittersweet yet beautiful image of resilience and survival. Congratulations to @MANRIKPHOTO bringing photography inspiration to Arena with The Photographers Corner. Photograph by @ZoranMilich ©”
