Top 100 Photos: The Happy Club

1. I picked this image because the image captures happiness. I always love to see happiness because it shows that even during the hardest times, we can all find things that can make us happy and fulfilled. I also think that dancing is a great way to express culture and stories. 

2. The photographer started out as herding his father's goats, and as French Colonial Rule ended, people started to experience things that made them happy. He took many photos, and on this particular night he captured the two lovers as the start of a new era, where people could show their love for one another in public. 

3. For this artist, there was a layout of a bunch of certain photos. It mostly consisted of people living in a new way that they haven't known yet. It shows the connection between the people and how they dance and celebrate.
