HOTSHOTS ~ 10/3/25

~ Photography Lovers Community Curation ~

Hello Photography Lovers! Welcome to another curation report featuring the community HotShots! where we have compiled some of your amazing photos to show off to the world!

Please take some time to review the entire post and go check out the rest of the images of features you like. Since we only share one featured image of many from your amazing posts, some of the best images are within the rest of the posts and we don't want you to miss the beauty!

Plus, you never know when your time to get featured may come and we are sure you would enjoy the same level of community support! So, make sure to support your fellow photographers because without you all, this community would not be possible.

Now, after curating diligently and sifting through the community's posts, here are the curation selections to share with you all. Keep up the great work for your chance to be in the next round of curation!

That was a perfect capture. I love the tones in the sky... the leading in your composition, the plume, and everything else. Great work. You will be getting 4% of this post's total payout for your HotShot top spot. Cheers

@jcalvoparapar this photo of the hummingbird in its nest filled me with tenderness. I just love those tiny birds.
The selection is fantastic as always, @castleberry, and I’m thrilled that my photo made it to that place. A thousand thanks.

The hummingbird is a beautiful little bird, full of curiosity and wonder. I have other shots of some in flight that I felt proud to capture—perhaps I’ll share them in future posts. Congratulations on your photo making it to that place!

Thanks for including my post in your curation of this great community. Not many other fall photos right now but who needs fall colors with sunsets like @daveks 🙂

I haven't posted in awhile. Hope to get back in the swing of things. Good to see you here still doing your good work 👍

That shot and post from Daveks were amazing! Your Fall colors were also splendid. I hope you share more soon. This time of year is gorgeous in your neck of the woods! I have my short absences as well. Life gets pretty busy these days. Got a lot of catching up to always do here on Hive. hahaha Cheers
