Incredible wildlife photos and nature photos abound in this week’s installment of This Week in Popular.

From an owl being held up by a herron, to a photographer portrait in the cypress swamps, to a couple of steamy portraits that your boss might not entirely approve of (hence the NSFW tag), there’s a lot of amazing photography to feast your eyes on here.

But the best part of the list? All the new names on it! Scroll down to see who made the list and start your week with a huge dose of inspiration.
