Category: Outdoor Photographer: Melinda G Photo: “[Insert Hallelujah Chorus here]” A perfect moment frozen in time! I love the symmetry of the wings, the colors, and even the water droplets. The background is nicely out of focus to make the powerful beat of the mallard's wings stand out even more. Thanks for sharing with our group!

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Juan María Coy Photo: “Sky mirror, sunset reflections at Lake Misurina - Auronzo di Cadore (Belluno,Veneto, Italy)” Awesome reflections? Stunning sky? Check and check!

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Peter Hickson Photo: “Standing firm in the face of Storm Callum” Raw beauty and strength captured in a single frame. Strength of the sea for sure, but also the strength of the lone pillar to withstand the unending beating it receives. But there is beauty here too. Beauty in the color, the form, the motion, and the reminder that we all must stand resolute against the forces that batter against us too. Thanks for sharing with our group!

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Pamela Aminou Photo: “Nature at its best” Excellent use of a long exposure to convey the mood of this scene, and the B&W conversion pulls it all together. The framing and arrangement of the posts in the foreground relative to the structure in the background gives the eye plenty to feast on as it moves around the photo.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Erik Karole Photo: “Fall Feather” “Autumn carries more gold in its pocket than all the other seasons.” ― Jim Bishop Lovely color and a wonderful alternative way to show off those autumn colors.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Ken Mickel Photo: “Untitled” While this is a photo of a truly beautiful flower, it was the quality of the light that held my eye. The subject is perfectly in focus, and the overall composition is well balanced. That warm light though keeps me coming back and evokes the feeling of standing in a sunny garden amongst those flowers. Thanks for sharing with our group!

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Ken Lee Photo: “When The Earth Reached Its Arms to the Heavens” What a great example of making the most of a cool opportunity! Be sure to check the caption of the photo back on Flickr for the backstory. Great use of wide angle lens, as the distortion of the earth works well in this context. Thanks for sharing with our group!

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Scott Thomas Photo: “Marymere Falls” The smooth waterfall splits the photo in two, with the opposing sides well balanced against each other. There's a lot of great detail to feed the eye as it flows through the scene. Thanks for sharing with our group! Originally shared with the Photofocus Readers Flickr Group.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: fiore_lla4ever Photo: “Non si può rinchiudere il cielo” Star trails around the north star with an interesting foreground catches me every time. I love the way these photos show the passage of time, the rotation of the earth, and the patience of the photographer to set up, shoot, and edit. These are not for the casual snap shooter.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Andrew Slater Photo: “Sand Access” Picture postcard perfect! The light and composition are spot on, and the sole figure walking down the shoreline is well placed to add both a visual point of interest, but also to bring the scene alive.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Jim Denham Photo: “SURPRISES FALLING” I love long exposure waterfalls where you can see through the surface of the water as it adds such depth (pun intended) to the photo. There's so much great detail for the eye to wander through the photo, and the low light adds a cool feeling of being deep within the forest. Thanks for sharing with our group!

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Cottage Days Photo: “bashful & cute black bear cub” Excellent detail and great expression on the cub are what caught my eye on this photo. It may have been taken at a wildlife sanctuary, but the way it was composed doesn't give anything about its surroundings away. The way it appears to be peeking around the tree gives it a playful feeling, which is well suited for the cub. Thanks for sharing with our group!

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Amaurie Ramirez Photo: “Hraunfossar Magic” I'm a sucker for photos of Iceland as it has long been on my bucket list, but this one stopped me in my tracks. The falling water is surely spectacular, but adding in both the foreground elements of grass and the stunning night sky just takes it all to another level. Iceland is truly a world of its own.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Cinzio Farinelli Photo: “le langhe” This photo is a great example of what happens when great light and great angles come together in front of a photographer with an eye to capture it. The way the light hits the fence that splits the photo in two is simply perfect. Thanks for sharing with our group! Originally shared with the Photofocus Readers Flickr Group.
