Greetings!

I am grateful to be this weeks guest judge for the renowned B&W Photo Contest!

For anyone who did not see, you can check out my guest judge post here. 

As I am the guest judge this week I will not be entering this contest to get placement, reward nor honorable mention. I am simply entering to help promote this weeks theme and support the legendary B&W Photo Contest!

Today I am sharing a couple photos I took at a festival of the children including @qiqi-power dancing and playing. Honestly they are not the best photos but they are full of life and joy. As I said in my guest judge post what I am looking for in this weeks theme is the soul and spirit of the scene represented through the photo. Obviously nice quality photos are ideal but it is the feeling from the picture that I am looking for most!

Festivals are great fun because the whole purpose of festivals is to come together and enjoy life, let loose, play, and celebrate! Children and @qiqi-power are especially good at this. 

One of my great hopes for life and the world is that humanity begins to recognize the value of children, honest expression and PLAY as prime importances instead of money, war, and material possession as is currently the predominant priority around the world. 

I love to see people happy and freely expressing them selfs. I can feel that in these photos. I love seeing the children holding hands, running barefoot and having a festive time. 

I am grateful to be able to share this with you all here. Steemit is the best place to share online. In fact the main reason I love photography is because it is such a great medium for sharing. Especially these days online. 

I hope you enjoyed these photos and take some time to focus your perspective on love and beauty. 

As always I appreciate your support and welcome your feedback!

SteemOn!
