Photography has the power of brightening up our lives; what a great thing it is to start our day by checking out beautiful images in the comfort of our homes! Here is the weekly wrap-up from Light Stalking – where you'll find finely curated photos from the general chit chat, as some creative images from Tersha's latest photography challenge on Kitchen Macro. And as you've already guessed it, we'll be mentioning some worth-seeing shots from the Feedback Forum too!

This time POTW goes to @johnteate and his cookie dough scoop.
The image feels playful because of its unusual composition, rich spectrum of colors and really clever use of reflection.
Congrats, John!

What You Shouldn't Be Missing From The Light Stalking Community
Tersha shared a magnificent black and white photograph with us the other day. According to her post, these sheep came rushing to her as if she was going to feed them. Fortunately, she had her camera with her and captured this beautiful shot.
Robert captured a small spider hanging from a thread. And also an interesting news about Olympus building some serious lenses too.
Graham shared this lovely portrait with us, isn't it beautiful?
David encountered a gravid female Cosmophasis micarioides which looks quite awesome in fact.
And finally, Dave captured some natural steam right at the perfect moment!
And don't forget to welcome our freshest forum members too!
We'd Love To Hear Your Thoughts
Also, our Feedback Forum received some nice photographs, and 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. This is possible thanks to valuable and positive feedback, which is perhaps the best way in which someone can hack the learning curve in photography.
Here you'll get your work critiqued by plenty of well-intended people, but you'll also have the chance of critiquing your peers. We truly believe in the power of criticism and feedback.
Many of our members have nurtured their own photographic knowledge by giving out elaborate critiques that go way beyond simple emoji based reactions or “nice shot” comments. Here are some of the most interesting shots shared during the last week:
- Snells Beach, North Island, New Zealand
- Broken Reflection
- Grandpa and Grandma Grimm with Grit
- Butterfly against the machine
- Weather Event of the Century
- Professional Dog Walker
- Flash and Smoke
- Building Materials
- Itinerant Beach Dweller
- Sophisticated Staircase
The Shark Tank is a great place to learn and to discuss, so please read the instructions in order to get 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. We'll be more than pleased to help you out; after all, we all are in love with photography. Also, don't forget to participate in our 522nd challenge on Water!
