Here's the fun part I'm giving out PhotoGames points and HIVE to YOU and THEM. So maybe they'll get interested because of the free Hive... which they get because you like them.

There will be 20 winners 10 of you and the 10 people you suggest

i don't think i've seen @bescouted around the games anywhere? He's a fantastic photographer and retoucher! https://peakd.com/hive-148441/@bescouted/hive-portrait-contest-week-4-i-wish-i-had-that-much-hair

Appreciate this mate, coming from a professional like you this is even more pleasant!

@inavan is a great couple traveling, photographing and writing about their adventures in a van. Their post about the Gulf Islands in Canada really got my attention for the cool shot of Bree in a cave looking at the ocean and a break down of the islands (and their van). I think they would have a great time playing @photogames and definitely have potential to be a Photo Star!

hard to be sure who has not played but i think i did not see @gunnarheilmann here. He is pretty active on the chain does some interesting things with photography. Would be fun to see some longexposure lightpainting in guessing games and editing.

I'm gonna say @bluebottlefilms, who's been dropping "Where is it?"photos regularly. A natural selection for being a photostar

@caseygrimley, you do realise that you're gonna get some more competition now, right? :P

Not really sure if he ever player or not ...but I would suggest @sharker.
And difficult to specify a single post because I believe all of them are quite good: https://peakd.com/@sharker

Thanks for nominating me! Glad you like my photos :)
Well, to be honest, I made two guesses in the games of the first week of this season ... not winning guesses, though :) If it's ok, I'll enjoy playing the games further.

Oh for sure, keep playing !!

But the mention here was to actually run some of the game yourself, not only playing the games :)

I thought, according to the description in the rules, that to be nominated as PhotoStar, it was necessary that I never played in these games at all. Some misunderstanding.
In any case, I would love to play games and run them :)

👍 ...cc @sjarvie5 and @jarvie

Awesome. That makes me happy that you are going to play. After a couple of weeks when you have played some games and feel comfortable you can run them. We have lots of support in the way of templates, leaderboard, and chats.

👌 Just call me :)

How would you feel about doing it next week? Someone had something come up and had to move weeks.

I second @sharker! Come play with us.

Thanks for the support! I will try to be more active in games :)

@aiparker is a photographer that knows the technical aspect of photography and enjoys editing pictures too. She just joined Hive. Here is her intro post

Ok, so my son @enak has not posted since 2018, but he logged into his hive account for the first time this morning. Also, he set up a coinbase account this morning. He just finished his third year of film school (one more to go...) and now he needs to set up a website for his senior thesis film. He is supposed to set up a gofundme account and start fundraising for the film. I suggested having a BTC receiving address on the site, he liked the idea, and that is why he now has a coinbase account.

Sooo... During all this, I was also able to tell him more about hive, communities, CineTV, and photogames. Perhaps a little outside motivation might get him to try posting again... He has taken quite a few film and photography classes since his last post and has gotten pretty good.

He hasn't posted on hive but here is his first post from that that other site intro post.

@enak, come play photogames with us!

Haha thanks guys. Maybe soon. Once I record my fundraising video and everything I'll post more.
(Idk why but I'm just now seeing this)

@photovisions is an excellent photographer. He has been more than 3 years on the chain, constantly active and he even does his own workshop teaching other photographers some of his wisdom every year :)
I think he hasn't played in the @photogames before and if he can spare some time he could be an ideal photostar!
Here is one of his latest posts, randomly picked (they are all great :) )

I don't think I have seen @mibreit-photo in @photogames (I hope so...haven't really stalked him ;) plus I wasn't very active either).
He is well-traveled and his amazing photography covers different genres. I first met him virtually in Tomas' 7 Continents Photo Challenge where I also got to know other awesome photographers such as Derek and Stefanos. I was always stunned by his landscape photos from different continents.
@mibreit-photo also does great tutorials about photography. Here's a recent post he made about photo editing in PS.

I am not sure if @crazy-andy ever played this game, but I would love to see his photos more. This is one of the latest and one of the most outstanding photo posts he did. I like his natural style and boy he saw some world! I think his photos would not only make this game richer but also we could learn something new. Travels make you rich I guess.
