1st Place | Photo of the Month | 34th Month

Children in Candle Light, by Daniel Schnyder
Since Daniel Schnyder was a kid, he liked to observe the lives on this planet, especially human activities. He believed the people are pilgrims in this world, and his great pleasure was to discover- to get in touch. Daniel is from Switzerland. He is married and blessed with a son. He is currently working as a polymechanician. Photography came to him as a way of curiosity to know how light captures the moment on the sensitive layer of a film. His photo Children in Candle Light was awarded in the Photo of the Day contest in the category of Artistic Photography, as it scored a solid 71 (Value 14, Clarity 13, Composition 18, Style 13, Skill 14) from our international jury of 5.
