Here is @steemimages round up of the fourth week of curation. It has been an interesting week for #animalphotography here on steemit, busy and steepshot. With more fascinating and unusual images from all over the world.

There are many good images that would have been much improved and better from a compostion point of view if they had been cropped in tighter to their subjects.

The criteria that is most important to us is the image quality(IQ). Many images were very good and high resolution especially the macro images. Get closer or crop tighter. Either way fill the frame with the subject.

Many posts had just a few votes and some posts that had no votes at all. We do hope that our upvotes and resteems will encourage you to keep posting and get your photos to a wider audience.

This week we focused on animal photography. Animal photography can be very difficult to do as the subjects are often moving and often will disappear before you get your camera up and ready to shoot.

We were particualrly interested in animals in their natural environment and we found some amazing photos.

This is not a competition as such but thought you might like to know who got the most upvotes from @steemimages this week. Every post that gets upvoted also gets resteemed.

I think you will agree that these stunning images which are all original images are well worth your attention.

We have many talented photographers on the steem blockchain. I hope you enjoyed our selection of their work and that you will spread the word about these active steemians. Give them a follow.

All next week we will be curating #architecturalphotography

Architectural photography can be fascinating as it encompasses a wide range of structures from photographing ancient buildings and monuments to structures like bridges and skyscrapers which can be aesthetically pleasing in their symmetry. To the humble hut or shed all have a point of interest. It is up to you to find it.

Remember to use the correct photography hashtag which helps us to find your work. Have a great week ahead.
