Photographer of the Day: Cathy Seaver
Category: Sports Photograph: Cathy Seaver "Dressage" Cathy captures the beauty of horseback riding in this sharp, gorgeous image. The lighting here is spot on — giving depth to the horse's coat.

You can be the Photofocus Photographer of the Day. Here's how. … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Cathy Seaver
Photographer of the Day: Joaquín Alonso Arellano Ramírez
Category: Nature Photographer: oaquín Alonso Arellano Ramírez Title: Bear A great portrait of a a dangerous creature. Black and white post-processing produces an image with a ghostly feel. Over on the the G+ thread, the photographer talks about the fact that, perhaps, he got to close to the animal to get this image. The ensuing conversation is worth reading for some pointers. Photo originally shared in Photofocus' Google+ group.

Photographer of the Day: Seth Patterson
Category: Nature Photographer: Seth Patterson Title: Doting Doe Babies. Is there any other subject that makes people go "Awwwwww!"? Yes. Animal babies; more so when we see animal parents in action. Patterson has captured an intimate mother and child moment. In the same moment, he has captured the holy grail of wildlife photographers: behavior. As this photo shows, not all behavior needs to be of the dramatic, "fight or flight" variety. Many times, tender parenting works just as well. Photo originally shared in Photofocus' Flickr … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Seth Patterson
Photographer of the Day: Christian Meermann
Category: Nature Photographer: Christian Meermann Title: Rasta Aquarium (5) Nature is full of patterns. Some fixed; some flowing. Meermann's lovely detail shot of sea anemone captures both the fixed patterns of color and the flowing patterns of shape and motion. To often, wildlife photographers focus on capturing the whole animal or a "head and shoulders" portrait. As illustrated here, there are many opportunities to create beautiful, abstract art by focusing on the details. Photo originally shared in Photofocus' Flickr … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Christian Meermann
Photographer of the Day: Rob Dweck
Category: Nature Photographer: Rob Dweck Title: Migration 3 With fast-moving animals, a wildlife photographer must make a conscious choice: freeze or blur. Freeze delivers tack sharp images; blur delivers abstract images. Both are powerful and evocative, but most photographers seem to choose freeze over blur. Dweck's photo illustrates why blur an equally valid, and often better, choice. Nothing says frenetic chaos quite like a great motion blur. Well executed, the animal is still recognizable but takes on an surreal, otherworldly … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Rob Dweck
Photographer of the Day: Karim Sahai
Category: Nature Photographer: Karim Sahai Title: A Young Reindeer I know summer is almost here, but how about a little Christmas magic? When I first saw this image, I thought for certain it was a digital painting. I was wrong. Instead, we have a bone simple composition with bit of alchemy found in the subject, setting, palette and just the right amount of bokeh. Sahai proves that vision + execution = magic. Photo originally shared here in Photofocus' Google+ Community. To learn how your work can be featured on the site, … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Karim Sahai
Photographer of the Day: Ric Rus
Category: Nature Photographer: Ric Rus Title: Goldfinches feeding before the snowstorm Overall execution is spot on, but that is not why I chose this image. In a word, dynamic. If you've ever watched the frenetic madhouse that is songbirds at a feeder, you know this image captures it perfectly, And, if you did not, now you do. Great wildlife photography capture behavior; just like this image. Photo originally shared in Photofocus' Flickr group.

Serena Hodson – Photographer of the Week
We've all seen those adorable children photographers that dress up their subjects in hats and costumes and put them in fun yet highly trendy and somewhat overdone props. Although the trend is vast, it still has clients begging. Now what if the same "prop" stylization was integrated into pet photography? Have you seen a dog in a fur coat? Or a Weiner dog in a wig? Or maybe a Boxer in a stroller? It's creativity at its finest and its people like Serena Hodson that stand out with her quirky and whimsical animal portraits. With creative … [Read more...] about Serena Hodson – Photographer of the Week
