It is a happy talent to know how to play.

tremendous spirit of adventure and a love of play.

The true object of all human life is play.
- G. K. Chesterton
Men do not quit playing because they grow old;
they grow old because they quit playing.
Steve McCurry is there when play erupts, is in full exuberant swing. These joyous images bear witness to play's universal beat. By nature it shines a bright light wherever it is allowed to flourish.

Yes, McCurry is quite a photographer. He is the one that had the photo of the Afghan girl on the cover of National Geographic years ago. He has done a lot of work in war zones and areas of conflict. These photos are a bright light.
