HOTSHOTS ~ 9/9/25
~ 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 very much for the mentioning, dear @castleberry ❤️
Flowers and insects, especially the flying ones, make an excellent combo! Thanks for sharing your shots with us here in the community.
Thanks for the mention! Congrats everyone!
Those young talents sure do show a lot of promise! That was a cool post and the art was wonderful! Cheers
Great shots selections
Thank you 🙏
You did a great job spicing up and capturing those Dafodil shots! Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work Joe!
Stunning photography curation into one, thanks!
This was an excellent round of curation! Thanks for your appreciation. Cheers
It has been so spectacular to discover this ancient and complex art form, thank you very much @castleberry 🤗
Juanita was a very beautiful actress. The art to print advertisements has gone through a lot of change over the years. It's pretty amazing how much work went into the artistic depictions. They don't make 'em like they used to, for sure. AI can seem quite soulless at times even if the result is incredible. Thank you for your contribution to this round of photography curation!
The old process of how these posters are made is amazing, especially considering that these posters are from 1951! Thank you very much!!!🤗
As always, an excellent selection of photographs. Thank you for mentioning me once again, dear friend @castleberry. Congratulations to all my colleagues for such wonderful photographs!
I really liked that artwork in the featured photo from your post! Thanks for sharing and caring my friend. Keep up the great work.
Thank you 😀
You are very welcome!
Congratulations to those featured here!
This was an incredible round of curation! Thanks for stopping by.
Thank you dear @castleberry, congratulations to all
I loved those Helicopter shots! They were very well done. Keep up the great work my friend.
I will 💪📸
Another great combination! Thank you for your appreciation @castleberry
You are very welcome! You will be getting 4% of this post's total payout for your top HotShot spot. That was an incredible post with some epic shots! Keep up the great work.
Oh my god splendid photography this post looks like a magazine!
Every curation post feels like a magazine. Just scrolling through many of the older curation posts is a trip. Thanks for stopping by and i am sure we will see more of your work featured in future HotShot posts! Cheers
Hey i guess i included too many photos in my last post. Anyway for sure expect more from me i will do my best. Cheers to you too! :)
I don't think you had too many photos. I used to worry about that too. Too few shots is more of an issue than posting too many. I would suggest making sure your horizon is horizontal when shooting or afterwards in the editing process. That first shot was pretty epic. Keep on keepin on!
Thank you! Yeah i mostly have old photos and only can change the filter or something. The first photo had a snapchat filter, but everything else is organic. I know sometimes photos get more aesthetically pleasing with filters but i try to keep my photos as organic as possible. Still thank you tho 😃
I prefer the organic stuff too. Filters are cool and editing can spice things up but taking a great shot ahead of time is best. The only suggestion i would give is maybe to keep the horizon being horizontal in mind when shooting. You can always rotate the photo a bit in editing... but if you shoot with that in mind you won't lose any of the edges on the crop. Cheers
Thank you so much!
You've been on a roll lately! Keep that momentum going and keep up the great work. Cheers
Awesome! Thank you very much :D
You really captured the event beautifully! You will be getting 6% of this post's total payout for your top thumbnail featured HotShot spot! Thanks for sharing your shots with us. Glad to see you taking more photos lately. Cheers
"Blood Moon" by @hiddenblade is pure cinema. You should be proud
That one was super awesome!
Most of these posts are incredible. I'm a real amateur photographer and I spend hours just admiring these beauties, and the stories behind it.
@hiddenblade's blood moon is so cool! It wasn't that bright where I live and I could only take the before eclipse pic.
I thought we would get more shots from that event... but hers turned out pretty spectacular. I didn't even see the moon out here that night.
Yeah, it's why it was special for us because we could see the lunar eclipse.
Felicidades a los apoyados. La verdad que las fotografías que comparten en esta comunidad son increíbles, y llenas de mucho amor. Un fuerte abrazo y muchas bendiciones
This was a pretty amazing round of curation! Thanks for stopping by to appreciate the beauty.
Wowww
