is comprised of some of the who's who on the blockchain and has REALLY captured my attention lately with the uptick in contests. This one is also open to all and I knew right away which of my thousands of pictures I wanted to share.
Mirth
This is a shot I took a few years ago that will probably remain one of my favourites for the rest of my days.
Technically, I like to take pictures with framing in mind. Meaning, if I don't have to crop them when trying to highlight the subject matter and they come out looking like a painting, that is success. Plenty of colour, a little depth of field, perhaps some perspective or unique telling angle.
It is the emotion that gets me in this picture and really does tell a thousand words. From the weather and nature, to the motion, the sun dresses and pajamas, kiddie umbrellas and joy of youth, I love this shot. I bet you can actually hear this picture.
I am a big believer that the happiness we have in life should be fostered from when we are young. I also know that when I reflect to escape the moment, appreciate today and borrow a little joy, it is fleeting memories of childhood that do it for me. Probably many others too.
I think it may be the pure unadulterated mirth that does it for me in this picture and the emotion captured immediately give me a happy emotion as I observe and sink in.
Maybe you can understand why I chose this of thousands of pics as the one to share here.
