~ 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!

Comments

[steven-patrick]

Great range of triple shots from the the cosmic scale, to a large urban shot, to the very human scale of a child at a memorial. Thanks for including my post in your compilation 🙏🙏

[castleberry]

Good eye! I'm glad that motif in selection wasn't lost. It's always cool to see the hidden or unintentional themes in each round of curation! Thanks for taking the time to point one out! That National Park looked super cool. I always love those kind of signs. Cheers

[shoemanchu]

Thank you @castleberry for featuring me again on this post, appreciate the support always. Have a blessed one.

[castleberry]

Always a pleasure sir!

[fotostef]

Thanks a lot for the mention!

As you have probably understand, I am spending most of those days in the olive grove :)

[castleberry]

That olive juice looked neon! I have really enjoyed your posts about this experience and process! It looked like a whole lot of bags of olives that needed to be pressed...

[fotostef]

I did, I did :)

[bibana]

All shots here are just breathtaking. I love how you chose them not only and not always from thumbnails pics. <3

[castleberry]

Thank you for pointing out that i go through each post manually and select images that go beyond just sharing the thumbnail. That's actually my favorite part of the job since so many amazing shots never get seen. Between the thumbnails and the featured images here... hopefully, it draws more traffic into y'all's posts to generate more interest and appreciation. Thanks for sharing your shots with us and keep up the great work.

[barnabo73]

Thank you!

[castleberry]

You know the drill! You will be getting 4% of this post's total payout. You had some fantastic shots in your whole post but I kept coming back to that featured image over and over. It just barely missed being in the top spot! Glad to see you back in action. Cheers

[barnabo73]

Thank you so much! I have been in Bangladesh and I will post wonderful new pics and stories soon!

[jlinaresp]

That cat and I are so happy to be in this fabulous selection #HotShots dear @castleberry friend!!! :))... Thank you so much and a big applause to all our talented contributing photographers!!!!

!PIZZA

[castleberry]

I loved the way the cheek of the cat was a bit squished against the edge! You are very welcome and hopefully I will get all caught up. I am about a day or two behind! (again) hahaha

[avdesing]

Thank you very much! It is a pleasure for me to bring the exhibitions that I go to, which are many, I love them!💗

[castleberry]

That was a particularly good exhibition and very meaningful post! Thanks for sharing it with us here. Which one was your favorite?

[avdesing]

That's two.... it's hard to choose!!!!

https://peakd.com/hive-194913/@jlinaresp/retratos-de-gatos-photografia-de-montalban-carabobo-venezuela-or-or-eng-esp-or-07-pics

I love cats!😍

[castleberry]

I meant which from the exhibition you went to was your favorite! hahaha
But those were two excellent posts you chose! I always enjoy and appreciate when folks elaborate on their favorites from the curation! Thanks

[avdesing]

jajajajajajaja ups jajaja

I like the eyes.... they were all great but I liked this one...maybe I'll look for some that look like me...maybe....

I'm painting eyes right now... violet eyes!

[nanixxx]

All my gratitude 🤗 ... It's an honour to be here.

[castleberry]

Your post was touching. I liked the words almost more than the photos! You have a special way with both. Keep up the great work and the honour is all ours to have you here sharing and caring!

[nanixxx]

😉🤗 gracias.

[jacoalberts]

Thank you, @castleberry, for the mention and your support by including my photo in this post! I do appreciate it!

[goga22]

Thank you so much dear @castleberry on my photo like Second HotShot Runner Up, and for my photo in Today's Hotshots, also congratulations to all the other authors ..... tough competition, very tough .... well done to all

[castleberry]

I really enjoyed (if that is the proper word for it) your post about your city. I felt that the shot I featured encompassed your sentiments in the post. You had some great shots in the whole thing that I really loved. Thanks for sharing with us and you will be getting 2% of this post's total payout for your spot. Cheers my friend.

[goga22]
