~ 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!

Oh it has been ages since I was last mentioned in one of these posts. (Due to my own lack of posting.) It was such a nice breather to scroll through all of the incredible posts and photographs. Thank you so much for making yet another one of these!

I felt bad for not picking one of the nature shots in the last round. I try to balance out the genres from HotShot post to post... but it's so tough and we always have amazing shots in all genres every round of curation. I never mind this impossible challenge. hahahha Thanks for sharing your awesome shots with us too.

Hello @castleberry friend!... I send big hug to you and thanks a lot for present one of my photos here today in this #hotshots selection!... Awww... the "Today's Featured Hotshot" by our talented @nanixxx friend... Impressive, isn't it? 🙏... And the other two photos, those of @anitahorvatirl and @sandormb friends, are also supreme postcards of light and impressive technique. I remember having seen them during my everyday tour through #photographyLovers and being ecstatic with them... You've come back with all the irons and your ability to select the best photos is, as always, at 100%!... Thank you very much for being here!...

And a big round of applause to all of our talented photographers here at #PhotographyLovers

👏👏👏

Thank you for the high praise. Selecting the shots is far easier than capturing them, so my hat goes off to those who take such amazing photographs! Those top 3 from this round were/are spectacular. Your shots were also pretty amazing. The personality shining through the face of that dog in your featured image is priceless. It's good to be back. Hopefully, i can keep up the momentum. I hate missing any content or time here in the community. Cheers my friend!
