At the end of every year, we do a “Best of *inset year here*” series, where we count down the top 10 most popular photos in every single category. From Macro to Street; from Portraits to Still Life; from Landscapes to, yes, even the Nude category.
These are some of the community’s favorite posts, raising the bar as they point out the best of the best (or at the least most popular…) images shared on 500px from the past year. But why wait for December to check in with the categories? Let’s see how the community is doing now that we’re a few months into 2016 and really rolling.
Feast your eyes on the 20 most popular photos in the Landscape category of 500px this year so far. Ready to be inspired?
