Action Shots And Peaceful Landscapes - Check Out Our Latest Update

Week after week, we state that “photography has the power of lightening up our daily lives,”; and what an excellent way of kick-starting our frantic routines by diving into some beautiful images in the comfort of our seats!

Here is our weekly wrap-up – you'll find finely curated photos from the general chit-chat blended with some creative shots from Tersha's 632nd challenge on Freeze People Moving in a Busy Environment! And as you might have guessed by now, some worth-seeing shots from the Feedback Forum as well!

This time POTW goes to @julie120.
Her action shot is well-composed, crystal clear, and the timing is simply perfect.
Congrats, Julie.

What Are Our Members Up To?

Pour some coffee or tea and enjoy our favorite shots from these images of frozen people in the perfect moment!

So, Wendy got invited to a Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace last May. Only iPhones were allowed during the event, and this was her best shot!

What an excellent capture of such a precise moment!

No, it's not a meme (yet), great capture of a quite funny “party accident”.

Great timing!

Colorful capture that made us wonder, “what's going on here”?

We'd Love To Hear Your Thoughts

Also, our Feedback Forum got some nice pictures, and it is clear that some of you have started building a solid photography style. This is the right place for all those people that want to grow fast as photographers.

Here, you'll get your work critiqued by plenty of well-intended people, but you'll also have the chance to critique your peers. We genuinely believe in the power of criticism and feedback. Here are some of the most exciting shots shared during the last week:

The Shark Tank is a great place to learn and discuss, so please read the instructions for a better critique experience. Share your comments, opinions, and doubts on any or all of the images above. We also will be delighted to see some of your own images. Don't be shy; critiques are given to photographs and not photographers.

Also, don't forget to participate in our 633rd challenge on Photograph a Minimalist Landscape!
