HOTSHOTS ~ 1/10/25
~ 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!

Thank you!
Perfect shot to be featured accentuating your post's title! hahaha Good job.
Thanks for highlighting my post!
Beautiful collection of photos!
You had some really cool shots in that post. I think it would be awe-inspiring and a bit nerve-wracking to come across a Rhino in the wild. They have always been one of my favorite animals and I don't think most people have enough respect for their raw power and size. Thanks for sharing your shots with us! Have a great weekend my friend.
thank you for adding !
I loved that shot! It had a lot of interest going on in there. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you 😊
You're welcome!
Wow! They are all beautiful great photographs! 😍👍
💚💚
Good job on the framing and composition of your featured shot. You had some good ones in your post but I loved that one in particular. Cheers
@castleberry Thank you very much, it is an honor for me.
Thank you very much dear @castleberry for choosing my two photos in Today's Hotshots. I must say that the competition is getting stronger every time and I congratulate everyone from the bottom of my heart on the excellent photos.
I loved how you set up the makeup into the shape of a clock and the creativity in your other post was pretty awesome. This was a great round of curation and the next post is also looking good so far! Keep up the great work.
💙💙❤️
Their attempts to intimidate and silence their critics are equally concerning. The use of downvotes as a means of censorship is a clear indication of their desperation to maintain their grip on the narrative. But it's not working

The Hive community has been plagued by a rise in spam accounts sharing stolen content. Many of these accounts appear to be linked to a single super farm that we've exposed @memesandstuff superfarm and we believe a prominent whale may be behind it
A Call to Action Against Downvote Abuse on Hive
Bad downvotes on Hive are a growing concern that must be addressed. These downvotes not only discourage users from sharing their real thoughts and ideas but also damage the community as a whole, we see many walk away

The Buildawhale farm scam has been a topic of concern for us, and we've exposed it. However, despite our attempts to bring attention to this issue, it seems that no concrete actions have been taken to address it. This lack of response is puzzling
Let's discuss a more serious issue that affects all on Hive. The prevalence of bad downvotes on Hive is a major concern, and we urge you to speak up if you've been affected by it. Don't be afraid to share your experiences speak up
Wooohhooooo AWESOME! Thank you so much @castleberry for the RUNNER UP 🥳🤩 much appreciated.
Congratulations to the other selected authors.
Beautiful selection of photos today! Looks like they get better and better 😎
Have a fantastic day all 👋🏻
The backlit warm light radiating off of the cold tones of the snow covered landscape made for some photographic magic! Thank you for all the effort you put into each post.

Thank you so much 😊

You had some really cool perspectives showing off the cables and wires very well.
Thanks for appreciating! 😊
Congratz to @littlebee4 👍 she is always creating quality content 🙂 Some photographers make you want to go visit where they have been. Littlebee4 is that way. I gotta say I have some travel envy from @joetunex's New Zealand shots too. Great shots.
Thank you @steven-patrick 😊 that’s nice to hear.
Me too… if only we could visit him and explore NZ 😎
It will be so awesome 😀
Come on over guys!
Maybe one day… 😁 it would be awesome.
Thank you 😊, Jackie ranks up there with her travel and photo shots. It is probably a thing with phography we envy beautiful shots and place 😀, I do envy too.
Littlebee's posts are always full of adventure and intrigue. I enjoy how much effort she puts into her posts and her photos are excellent as well. Glad you pointed out her content and Joe definitely has shared some of the beauty of New Zealand. He will be an official KIWI in no time! hahaha
We are getting snow today similar to what you showed in your post. Stay warm my friend. haha
thank you for choosing me
You are very welcome. Those were some very beautiful shots! I really enjoyed the featured image from your post.
