Another beautiful moment. I really like how you can just barely make out the little guy holding the flashlight. It's an incredible story-telling photo! #1279360

Thank you everyone for this surprising win. It is obviously one of my personal favorites due to the subjects involved, but I am also fascinated at what just a flashlight can do in the way of illuminating a scene. #10403539

Receiving an award from Better Photo is just like unwrapping a gift, the thrill is always the same! It is also exciting to be able to send my personal congratulations to each and every one of you and I look forward to seeing the gold though out the galleries. Merna
