Today is May 4th, so here is the obligatory Star Wars reference.
I don't think the "May the force" pun really works because nobody ever actually says the date like that. Like who would ever say "today is August the 22nd?" Nobody!

Now, enough Star Wars and on to the "Star Awards!" (see what I did there?)

Make sure you check out the April Photography News from Hive account@skiesandsports to keep up-to-date with cutting edge photography information!

Finally, we are aware that Steemauto has been working sporadically at times, so apologies if you have a post that was resteemed or upvoted by Hive account@photofeed and did not have Hive account@cryptoctopus's vote follow. It's not a perfect system, but we're always working to make photofeed work better and welcome your input.

For those of you that are new, here is a quick reminder of who we are and what we are about. Hive account@photofeed is run by Hive account@cryptoctopus, Hive account@jrue, Hive account@aweber, and Hive account@yumyumseth.
Here's what you can expect to see on a regular basis from PhotoFeed:

1. Up to 5 resteems every day showing off and rewarding the top content posted to #photofeed.
2. A daily wrap up post highlighting and rewarding the 3 best photos from the previous day.
3. 1 weekly post to congratulate our favorite photo of the week.

Steemauto seems to be functioning properly currently, so go join our curation trail and rack up those rewards!

If you know of any talented photographers that are not posting in #photofeed or are not on Steemit, let them know about this project!

1/2 of the SBD of this post goes to the great photographers featured below, and the other 1/2 currently is going towards increasing rewards in the future!

Here are our favorite photos that we resteemed on May 3rd:
