A candid moment when my kids were playing sweetly together at a park we stopped at on our way home from a family trip to west Texas. It was a half-day's drive home, so they needed to let off some steam.

Wow! This one was all over the place on the scoring, but it seems to have gotten a significant boost in the final hours of voting. That almost never happens for me here--usually it's the opposite. LOL
Thanks to everyone for the wonderful comments and favorites. This one will be a really fun family memory for all of us.

i keep coming back to this Jonathan .. its a truly wonderful image . so full of energy, fun and excitement .
seeing this along with others ppl have taken with the Samsung S25 and S26 series has motivated me to update my S21 which is over 5 years old .. its probably about time .. who keeps their phones for longer than three years these days .. especially if they are wanting a better camera .. :)
When I saw this photo I thought man,"I wish I took it" I knew immediately it was yours. You're very blessed to still have young children, such a pocket of joy. A snap moment in time that lifts the spirits, congratulations on your win!.
A beautiful and heartfelt composition. It really captures your children's enthusiasm and love of life. So well done and with a cell phone none the less!
My favorite in this challenge. You nailed it! Just the right amount of sunlight obscuring the subject while still maintaining enough subject material to keep the viewer interested.
