~ 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!

Congrats to @bil.prag 👍 love that shot. Its like a whole story in one shot.

Thanks for including my posts 🙏🙏 lots of good fall shots this edition

[bil.prag]

Thanks :)

[castleberry]

The focal point and the colors along with the amazing focus... it was hard not to pick that one! The whole post was cool but that shot was EPIC! Thanks for noticing. Your sunset was pretty epic as well!!! Thanks for sharing and taking the time to comment! Cheers

[litguru]

Muchas gracias, compadre for showcasing my flower shots. Ole! 💐

I like the careful way that @koto-art meticulously explored the elements of this scene. It makes for a very peacefully aesthetic set.

In this image by @wolfplayzor, I like the way the curves of the shelf seamlessly appear to blend with the curves of the leaf

I think in a past life, I used to be Dutch.😄 I love Nordic culture, including architecture, and @haastrecht brings some epic shots of the Rotterdam Skyline.

[castleberry]

Your post was pretty thought-provoking! I liked the way you described your selections here as well. Thanks for taking the time to comment and share your thoughts! Cheers

[alokeen]

@shoemanchu @pranavgtd @naveen.jogta These authors made incredible shots. Wow, a very wonderful collection of works, thank you friend @castleberry for the support

[castleberry]

I agree, all 3 of them plus yourself had some really great shots! Thanks for taking the time to comment and share your thoughts. Keep up the great work.

[alokeen]

Thank you) I always look at each selection with delight.

[shoemanchu]

Thank you @alokeen means a lot to me, you as well have some incredible shots too. Have a blessed weekend.

[androliuben]

A big appreciation for including me once again. Like every curation report, this one carries some really impressive photos. Congrats to you all!

[castleberry]

That was a beautiful family to be able to take portraits of. You did a great job on that shoot! Thanks for sharing your shots with us and for taking the time to comment! Cheers my friend.

[grafvisionsp]

Thank you so much my friend @castleberry for support!!!

very happy for all the recognition and for liking my work.

[castleberry]

You had some cool posts with some excellent and expressive shots! Thanks for your contributions to the community! Your featured HotSHot spot will be getting you 4% of this post's total payout! Keep up the great work.

[grafvisionsp]

@castleberry HOWW !!!

Very happy with everything, thank you very much! this is music to my ears

[goga22]

Yeahhhh dear @castleberry ❤️ for another Hat Trick, in such a rather dangerous competition, it is really an honor to be chosen with three photos. I thank you for that, but I also congratulate from the bottom of my heart to all the excellent selected photo authors, well done to everyone 📸💪💪

[castleberry]

Like i said, you are off to one of the best starts I have ever seen on Hive in all my years here! The best part is that none of your posts are lacking quality. Most people that start out posting as often as you end up sacrificing quality for quantity. I'm so glad that is not the case in your situation. You posts and shots keep getting better and better! Keep up the great work my friend.

[goga22]

It's easy for me 😉 when I only have a little wind at my back dear @castleberry ❤️

[riyat]

Good evening everyone ♥️
Congratulations to those who have been selected, you are all amazing. And thank you very much for choosing my post, I will continue to try to continue to give the best here ♥️

[castleberry]

That Dragon Fly post was epic! Some of my favorite Dragon Fly shots that I've seen so far! Thanks for sharing your shots with us here in the community! Cheers

[riyat]

Thank you very much my brother ♥️
I am happy that you like my photography results, I will continue to try to give my best here.

[vonlecram]

Thanks for including me once more time. Congrats to everyone

[castleberry]

Both of your posts were really cool. Always happy to include talented photographers sharing some great work here in the community! Keep up the great work my friend.

[mnurhiver]

Thank you very much for featuring my image here.I also congratulate all my friends who have been mentioned here and you all have a pretty beautiful picture display.

[castleberry]

That sunset and the candid shots of the village people were both really cool and well done! Thanks for sharing them with us here in the community! Keep up the great work.

[mnurhiver]

Okay you're welcome. I'm also very happy to join you all.❤️🤝🍻

[stuartcturnbull]

thanks for tagging me in

[castleberry]

I was glad to see Devosi inspired you to shoot and share your shots! You got some good ones in your post and I thank you for contributing here to the community! Cheers

[dianypds]

Muchas gracias por seleccionar una de mis fotografías.❤️❤️❤️ exitos y bendiciones

[castleberry]

Those buildings looked cool. I would encourage you to try and get shots that are AS In-Focus as you can possibly get. The better your focus is in your photographs the easier it is to see what you are trying to emphasize! I really enjoyed your eye post and those are the type of shots that are difficult to get a good focus on. Keep up the great work.

[lindoro]

Thank you so much dear friend for the mention, have a great night, best regards 🙋🙋🙋🙋

[castleberry]

Glad to see some of your work here in the community again! You had some cool street shots! Thanks for sharing.

[lindoro]

Thank you so much dear @castleberry for your kind words, best regards 🙋🙋

[yeni82]

Thank you so much @castleberry for including my photographs in your selection and for supporting my work. Excellent selection of images, their creators are extraordinary photographers. Many congratulations to all the winners and participants. Regards ☺️

[castleberry]

The composition and framing of that featured shot of yours were fantastic! It really emphasized the beauty of the flower. Thanks for sharing your shots with us and I hope everyone goes to check out your post! Cheers

[yeni82]

Thank you very much for your kind comment. Greetings and have a nice day ☺️

[nanixxx]

Greetings and my gratitude for including my post in this report. 🤗

[castleberry]

You had some excellent perspectives, visually and verbally, in your post! I hope the storm hasn't been too bad there! Cheers my friend.

[nanixxx]

Thanks for your concern, 🤗 and sorry for the delay in replying... 😐 The power hasn't really been cut here and we didn't have any problems with the last hurricane. In Guantánamo, in eastern Cuba, it was sad.

I hope all is well for you and your family. Cheers!

[abelfotografia]

Thanks so much! So happy to see my golden miracle on this curation!

[castleberry]
