Meet our August Photographer of the Month – Jamin Hunter Taylor
We put out a call for Wildlife and Animal photographers for our August Photographer of the Month and were introduced to talented Flickr members from all over the world. Our Photographer of the Month award went to Jamin Hunter Taylor for his wildlife photography which truly captures animals in their elements and provides unique moments where his audience can join him in appreciation for the natural world around him. Visit Jamin’s site and give him a follow so you don’t miss any of his beautiful shots. And enjoy his official Photographer of the Month Flickr gallery to see just why we decided he should take the top spot.
