Humans at their best...

I attended a gathering of photographers at Steele Park in Phoenix last week. Our mission was to shoot in B&W with the intent of showing that the color of a persons skin makes no difference in who we are as a people.

 

Now, I am not known for being Mr. Kumbaya. Typically, I am more than a bit skeptical when it comes to giving total strangers hugs and dancing a happy dance with them.

 

However, it turned out to be a good deal of fun meeting the people who were there only to celebrate their humanity. What a concept.

 

 The group photos below were shot by one of the coordinators of the event.

The others are my contribution from the day.
