not subordinate to some other adaptive
act, but with a special function of its own
in human experience.

What is the picture from I think Spoleto, Italy? (The one with the big blue ball and I’m guessing at least a half-naked lady in it)

Your talent for capturing the soul of the people and places you photograph is life-affirming and amazing. I love the way your photos evoke a sense of connectedness between us all despite the vastly different cultures and experiences represented.

Steve,
You are always superb. Photographs are perfectly composed and mean so much.
Keep Up the great job.

Play… one of the reasons I love being with my granddaughters, they make me forget the rules some times and we just frolic.
It brings different people together for one purpose – to have fun!
Wonderful images.
BTW thank you for all your support with photo auctions for FWAB. Both my husband and I donate our prints to the charity. Giving back is another joy.

i had already 5 to 7 years not play games like this, but actually when i was a kids, i love those games, but people will grow up like everyone else. Busy jobs, heavy burden from families will occupy most of our time. But i still will miss them when i’m in weekend, those at weekend, i still need to make some extra money for my beautiful clothes!
October 26, 2011 at 06:06
The quotes & images are fantastic! I am impressed not only by the images, but how much of the world they include. Also how you expanded on one theme so beautifully. Thank you.
October 26, 2011 at 04:52
These photos are a striking reminder that we are all human and that all human beings are able to, and deserve to laugh and play, no matter where on this Earth they may be. We all share laughter and it makes our world far more beautiful. Thanks for such a touching post.

lovely weave of words and images. Truly inspiring. Thanks for sharing and congrats on being Freshly Pressed!
October 26, 2011 at 02:32
first off, gorgeous pictures.
secondly, i’m not sure i’ve ever seen a positive representation of an afghanistani man prior to yours. those bright blue eyes and the icecream in his hands make the image so genuine and familiar. i see my brother in those eyes. now, he is my neighbor and my family in my perception, not an enemy or stranger.
isn’t it wonderful how an unsuspecting image communicates more profoundly sometimes than the exact placement of ideas throough words? excellent work, thank you for sharing!
October 26, 2011 at 02:06

We all need happines and games also. Ultimetly compassion is achieved trough good life attitude.
Games is something that can help us to achieve that, if we can accept that we can lose. Like in life great loses wil happen. And nothing is eternal. But we exist and that is what counts. Possibly wil write about that. Sometime.

October 25, 2011 at 00:18
Steve, you’ve no doubt heard it all before but I have to say it. Your work is a fundamental reason why I pursued photography in addition to illustration and graphic design. Your portraits and landscapes of civilization inspired and shaped my approach to street photography; admittedly sometimes a little too much as my images began to look like bad copycats of yours.
You have set a standard in portraiture and photojournalism that will always influence my development as an artist, and my general consciousness.
I can’t thank you enough.

October 24, 2011 at 20:14
I absolutely love these shots. You’re capturing emotion, and feelings.
I believe that when one’s behind the lense, every time the shutter is released you steal a piece of that life, or that scene. The goal is to be able to pay back what was taken though the photographs. They are a gift.. capturing the essence of our world.
Fantastic job, and congrats on being freshly pressed.

Your pictures are simply amazing. The concept of ‘play’ in different countries was a great idea. Each pic was better than the last, although I’d have to say my favourite was the Afghan guy with the ice creams. His smile and innocence holding two ice cream cones (surprised they’re not melting!) is great!

October 24, 2011 at 15:19
Breathtaking and insightful. Thank you! One question though: From the gender ratio of the photos, it looks like girls and women don’t play very much in Asia. Is that an accidental thing, an Asian thing, an allowed-out-in-public thing, a photographer-selection thing, or a female thing?
I love the way you put together the photos and quotes. Well done.

And I think every management “team building” session could not go wrong with a 3 legged race. or egg and spoon.

Perhaps my favourite was the Afghan with the ice creams. Just a great look of glee that he has 2 and may even be able to eat at least one of them.

Playing in the fields of the Lord is a metaphor for life which I take seriously. Steve’s pictures are always inevitably relevant to what humans are up to.

Dear Steve,
The photos are amazing as they captured the very delicate essence of life, the happiness. I believe the idea behind this series of photos was interesting as it let the photographer captured photos very close to the subjects’ deep personalities and innocent souls.
Wish you luck and happiness.
