21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Capturing Moments

On New Year's Day, amidst the pandemic, we gathered for a joyful family reunion. Laughter filled the air as we played games and created lasting memories. I snapped this photo to capture the warmth and love shared between us, a reminder of the importance of family during uncertain times. It serves as a testament that true happiness comes not from material possessions or societal status, but from the love we give and receive, inspiring others to embrace the same joyful way of living.
