Greetings ASEAN Hivers, @justinparke here with a new photography based challenge for you all, and this one will have you looking for smooth surfaces.

🤳 Mirrors & Reflections 🪞

👨‍💻 Week #171 👩‍💻

^{September 8th ➡️ September 16th, 2025}

This challenge is once again, way too late, but my stepdad has now become unable to stand, so my caregiving duties have become more challenging. Anyhow, this week's challenge is a photography based one, all about reflections and mirrors, so basically anywhere you can find light reflecting off of something else is a potential shot to be used. Water, actual mirrors, very clean windows, stainless steel, and many types of other surfaces can provide you with reflections.

As with all ASEAN Hive challenges, a story is always half of the post, and that's what makes Hive such an interesting social media platform. Experiment with different times of the day and you might fight different opportunities for interesting shots. This challenge explains itself pretty well, so enjoy and I look forward to seeing your entries.

Week #170 ASEAN Hive Challenge Winners
🫰 One Day, One Dollar 💵

This challenge inspired me to increase the number of potential winners for each weekly challenge. There are always many quality entries lately, plus I have been overwhelmed with life and have been late with my curation posts and challenges for far too long, so now up to four winners will get a 10% beneficiary, the same share as the original first prize. For this one dollar challenge, I highly recommend you check out any or all of the posts below and consider showing some support.

Winner 💵 10% Beneficiary

One Day One Dollar: Snacks For Everyone
by: @mayt

_(EXCERPT) ‎As of September 9, 2025, 6:50 pm, 1 US dollar equals approximately 56.71 Philippine pesos. With that, you can buy everyday items or enjoy local food like fish balls, fresh fruits, or even local drinks. Today's ASEAN Hive Community Challenge is about "One Day, One Dollar". ‎For 1 USD, what can you buy in your country? This is a very simple challenge, but it will let you realize a lot of things.|

One Day One Dollar Fish Head Lunch - Saturday Savers
by: @dewabrata

_(EXCERPT) So my topic for Asean Hive Community post today is One Day One Dollar. This would not be my best post about anything related to One Dollar, especially for foodie posts, but I want to try combining multiple theme(s) into one post.| |---|---| |

One Day, One Dollar: My Small Purchase and a Hard Reflection on a Sad Reality
by: @wanderelle

_(EXCERPT) It's amazing how a single US dollar amounting to 56.65 Philippine pesos (as of September 7, 2025) can be both small and a lot at the same time. In Philippines, that amount can get you a kilo of rice or a couple of canned good and instant noodles. You may be able to get a couple of cups of coffee at a small local coffee shop in the neighborhood, a couple of rides in the jeepney, or a few popular street foods such as fishballs and kwek-kwek.|

One Day, One Dollar: Got a Pack of Burger Buns for the Fam and Snacks and Dessert for Myself -for One Dollar, YES!
by: @ruffatotmeee

_(EXCERPT) I really like today's topic in Asean Hive Community, this one challenge made me realize how big 1 dollar actually is despite the inflation. Well, maybe it depends on the place, I'm living in a small town where the price of everything, from necessities, foods, etc can be felt and we really can't help but complain.|
