Hello Steemians, greetings to all. Today I am here to share a new post with you again. This time on the occasion of the learning challenge, @kouba01 Sir has organized a very nice competition for each of our users. When the results of the learning challenge were announced, I thought that this time I will try to participate in most of the learning challenges. So today I am going to pin steem-atlas about brick kilns among you and upload a Speem.watch video to share the post with you. But let's discuss this brick kiln in more detail with you and try to arrange the post nicely

When I reached the brick kiln for a brick kiln tour, I left my bike right on the side of the road and when I entered the brick kiln through the entrance road of the brick kiln, I captured a very beautiful view of the entire brick kiln starting from the entrance road on my mobile camera. I found the environment around the brick kiln very beautiful to see. At the moment of entering the brick kiln, I saw an ISCO Better machine where mud was being made to make bricks through the machine. There I saw small vans or wheelbarrows with which people were working in the brick kiln and various types of things were being arranged on the vanguard and taken from one side to the other. In fact, the brick kiln is very big. I visited the entire kiln and enjoyed the environment and beauty of the surroundings.

Workers working in a brick kiln

After entering the brick kiln, I was able to capture the entire scene of the brick kiln very well on my mobile camera. When I visited the environment around the brick kiln, I really liked it. Talking to the workers who were working in the brick kiln, I came to know that they work in the brick kiln in two shifts, that is, at night and during the day. Since there are different people for night duty and different people for day duty, their work has become very easy, but working in the brick kiln is really very difficult. The environment around the brick kiln is arranged in different ways. Raw bricks are made and allowed to dry around them. In fact, a lot of land is needed to build a brick kiln. All those lands have been taken for the brick kiln and they are using those lands for the brick kiln in different ways.

When I looked around the brick kiln, I climbed up to the top of the brick kiln and saw several workers putting mesh in the brick kiln and doing a lot of work on the brick kiln. I talked to them and got permission to go up to the brick kiln and brought permission to take pictures there. Charcoal powder was being put in the brick kiln. And an iron pipe was being moved. They called me and asked me to take pictures of the fire scene from in front of the brick kiln. I took pictures there and a worker was very nicely putting the coals in the brick kiln so that the temperature of the fire would increase better. A brick kiln worker was walking around the brick kiln and touching the brick kiln to see if the temperature of the brick kiln was right. In fact, I really liked the atmosphere of their brick kiln and I also liked it after talking to them.

I really enjoyed watching the moment when the brick kiln workers were making bricks from the ground. I stood for a long time and chatted with the brick kiln workers and watched their handiwork. In fact, I really enjoyed watching their handiwork. They were sitting under such a beautiful open sky, making bricks, and they all enjoyed telling different stories together. The brand name of the brick kiln is KRHB Brick. They are making the bricks under this brand name. When the bricks were finished being fired in the kiln, I captured the moment when they took the bricks out of the kiln very beautifully on my mobile camera. The beautiful moments of the brick kiln were really extraordinary to me.

When I went to the brick kiln for a tour, I enjoyed the beauty of the brick kiln and tried to get various ideas from the brick kiln workers about their work. After finishing the bricks, the good bricks were being kept in a beautiful row in one place. And the bricks that were a little crooked or damaged were being kept separately in another place. In fact, these bricks will be used to make khoya. All this while I was proving the brick kiln, I enjoyed the various beauties of the brick kiln and captured it on my mobile camera. At the end, I took a selfie with the brick kiln beautifully and shared it with you. I am ending my post here today, thank you all on my behalf.

Thank you for your participation in Geo-Quest Mystery – Week 1: The Origin Point. Here is an evaluation of the post by @kibreay001, following the official Week 1 rubric for Geo-Quest Mystery.

Evaluation Summary

CriteriaScoreComments
1. SteemAtlas Pin & Description1.35 / 1.5Clear SteemAtlas pin with coordinates, plus code, and place name (Kumaridanga Brick Kiln, Bangladesh). Good information table. To reach full points, add 1–2 visitor-oriented directions (nearest town/landmark or “from X bazar, go Y minutes”).
2. Creativity of Mission & Hidden Clue1.1 / 2.0The brick kiln is a distinctive and authentic Origin Point with strong real-world observation. However, the required hidden clue (one word hidden via acrostic or emoji-code) is not clearly included.
3. Speem.watch Proof Video1.5 / 2.0A proof video is included (IPFS) and the post indicates “Posted with Speem.” For full points, provide a clear Speem.watch link and include a direct spoken “starting point” line while filming recognizable markers (kiln entrance/brand KRHB/brick rows/fire scene).
4. Storytelling Quality1.7 / 2.0Strong on-site documentation: entrance road, machines, shifts, worker interaction, firing process. The narrative is informative and authentic. To improve, add a clearer personal “Origin Point” reflection (why this place is your Point Zero and how it defines your explorer identity).
5. Photos Quality & Authenticity1.5 / 1.5Excellent authentic photos showing multiple stages (mud machine, workers, coal/fire, bricks, selfie). Very strong proof.
6. Engagement (Comments / Clue Guessing)0.0 / 1.0Based on your note, there was no interaction with other participants’ entries to guess their hidden clues, so engagement points cannot be awarded this week.

Final Score: 7.15 / 10

Remarks:
This is one of the strongest “real-life work environment” entries in terms of authenticity and documentation. To score higher, add a clear hidden clue (acrostic/emoji-word), show the Speem.watch link clearly, and meet engagement requirements by commenting on at least two entries and attempting to guess their hidden clues.

I think the hidden clue is “OBSERVER”, because the whole post focuses on careful observation of the place, people, and work.
