Comments Off on International Photography Awards: Where Brilliance & Talent Bring Awe-Inspiring Shots

For starters, I love to shoot and I shoot often. Wherever I go, my trusty Canon 7D is dangling from my arm. I have so much admiration for those who have been glued to their cameras for decades and take their art to the next level. The International Photo Awards brought together some shots that will knock your socks off and then some. Below I have shown some of my personal favorites with artists name and titles attached so you can learn more about them. Here’s a link to the Photo Awards Page for all of them.
