This image was taken in the Jewish Ghetto region of Rome, Italy. I loved the natural, jovial interaction among these three men in front of an Israeli flag caught in the wind.

This photo was taken in Gapan, an island in the Philippines. While resting on his father’s tuk-tuk/taxi, the boy watches a community basketball game between young men of the village.
