15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Walking along the coast

Not trying to get the most Just candid shots A genuine smile only a candy could shoot Holding inbetween her teeth the truth she'll never let go Through her smile I learnt patience Through her smile I felt gratitude I learnt of happiness And ultimately I learnt of business No middle men in this party She prayed and played Patiently oozing faith With heavy innocence, too slow for my shutter Radiating energy Green Brown Green An effortless color harmony Symbolizing nature and fertility An embodiment of the next generation A reflection of freedom And tapping into her energy, Fishermen returned to supply her, Not just for the money But to tap into her innate beauty and purity Of her smile and its prowess
