Hi, lovers of travel and photography!

You are kindly invited to take part in edition #10 of TRAVEL CONTEST and the theme today is "Travel Portrait" :)

We all know it is challenging to take portraits of strangers. There is no easy way to know in advance what the reaction of the subject would be. However, this sometimes turns a regular travel photo into a masterpiece!

Feel free to interpret the theme in every way you like, I hope to inspire more people to join this edition of the contest! :)

Please read the rules carefully before applying ;)
