HOTSHOTS ~ 9/3/25
~ 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!

Thank you for including one of my photographic works here in this exciting #HotShots selection @castleberry friend!!!!
Those were all some great shots! Thanks for sharing them with us here in the community! Keep up the great work, my friend.
Thanks @castleberry! Congrats everyone! See you at the next one!
The Outsider Art and Sculptures were all really cool. Thanks for sharing!
Another batch is coming today, more fun sculptures 😎
Thanks for including my work in this fantastic selection @castleberry 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
That featured shot of yours from that first day of school is perfect! Thanks for sharing and for your contributions! Cheers
Thank you so much 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you so much for your support and for featuring my photo!
This compilation is probably the best of all of my month-long Hive adventures so far. Fantastic photos!
All the shots in your post were excellent which made it difficult to pick just one... but i'm a sucker for fantastic shots of rainbows! You will be getting 6% of this post's total payout for your top HotShot thumbnail spot. Thanks for your contribution and keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!
I love rainbow photos too. The fact that the phenomenon is rare probably has a lot to do with it.
I also wish you success and perseverance in the great work you're doing here.
Thank you very much for your support! Much appreciated! ☺️🙌🙏
Always a pleasure to see your content, Abel! Keep up the great work. Your 'Through The Rabbit Hole' post was fantastic. Cheers
Thanks! Glad you liked that too!
Thank you very much for the mentioning, dear @castleberry 😊
You are most welcome! Keep up the great work. =)
Thank you again for mentioning
That was an interesting adventure you posted about. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing!
Thanks you so much 🤗
Thanks for sharing your city and perspectives with us!
Thank you very much for the feature!
Nice to be back and to see you back :)
Slowly but surely... getting back into the groove! Always a pleasure to see your content here in the community. Cheers Stef
Thank you for the feature!
You are very welcome! Those were some lovely shots. I really enjoyed your featured image. Keep up the great work my friend.
Thank you :)
You are very welcome!
I hope to be able to post some of my photographs here soon. Thank you for compiling them.
Will be keeping an eye out for when you do! Cheers
Thank you very much dear @castleberry for choosing my two photos, congratulations to all the selected authors
Keep up the great work my dear friend. Cheers
Todos somos ganadores
The photography is so beautiful, it inspired me more in this community. Thank you for sharing ideas that really help beginners like me. God bless.
I'm so glad you selected my post! Thank you so much for the support! 💚
That looked like a really cool museum to check out. I loved that featured sculpture but the others were super cool too!
Thanks for the support @castleberry really appreciated 🙏🏾
Those were some fantastic shots! Thanks for sharing and caring. Looking forward to seeing more of your work!
Loved the photos! Gotta say, I have a soft spot for the First HotShot Runner Up by @rg2-foto and the Second HotShot Runner Up by @scottshots.
That little moment alone with your pet—just looking at the pose, I can totally imagine the girl having a chat with her pup—is pure magic. So much love! 💖
The second one? Absolutely obsessed. Super captivating! The contrast, the repetition—just brilliant. Incredible work!
And the shots in @kadr-pokaze’s post? Totally epic!
Big congrats to everyone!!!! 🎉🙌
IF that rainbow hadn't been so crystal clear in the capture... rg2 would have been the top shot. I loved the silhouette of the girl and her pet looking out at the ocean. The image was so powerful and perfectly composed and framed. Kadr has been sharing some epic shots in all of his posts lately. Scott has been back in action and on quite a nice streak of impressive shots. It's always difficult to select the top 3 and i try to rotate the genres or styles... but that just makes it even more difficult. hahaha Thanks for your thoughtful comment and for your beautiful contributions!
Thank you @castleberry! Lovely selection
Those were some great portraits and your friend made a very beautiful model. I hope to see you two work more together in the future. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing your shots with us!
Count on it! You are a great community and it's a pleasure to share my photos with you.
As always it's an honor to have one of my pictures on this post
You make it tough to select which images to feature from your posts. They are all beautiful in their own ways. I really loved that photoshoot because of the beauty in the contrast between the natural light illuminating the greenery and all the red tones, especially her hair! Great job and thank you for your contributions!
Thank you so much for that comment. Your attention to detail is evident, and you really appreciate what I wanted to emphasize in the photos. Thank you again. 🫂
Thanks so much for the support, I'm glad to be on this post along with so many talented photographers.
Your shot was almost in the top 3. Those were some excellent shots and it was a cool post. The sun really brought out the color and clarity... but not without its challenges and difficulties! Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing!
