~ 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!

Love the monkey shot by @curamax 🙂 its like a whole story in that photo... gaining the trust of the whole troop, the eye contact with the monkey reaching out, great stuff.

Thanks for including my post in this awesome compilation 👍

[castleberry]

The sunlight in your post wasn't as harsh as we reflect on it from our dark, cold, Winter! hahaha
Curamax's shot did have it all. It was tough to pick since he has some other good shots with the monkies. I chose that image for all the reasons you mentioned! Good eye.

[fotostef]
