I have to thanks Jools again for both hosting and judging the previous challenge. Now to this week theme one of my favorite "kind" of photos especially to see are the one called "stolen moments". My English are not good enough to give a full definition of this type of photos but in my mind anything from candid to paparazzi would probably fit. Usually photographer is an "outsider" in this kind of photos but I've seen street portrait, family moments, even macros tagged liked stolen moments.
So just share a moment that you decide to steal but in the end you managed to save

Have fun!
This competition is open from now until midnight on Friday March 23, 2012.


The fine print....
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread, and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose 1 of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus a day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Samsung DSLR) camera will do.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge.

On a 5 day trip into the back country of Algonquin Park with two German clients and a friend who came along to be the second person in my canoe, we paddled from our campsite to a nearby rock face to take in the sunset. As the rest of us kept up a conversation, Wolfgang stole away from the group and sat down for a few minutes of contemplation or meditation. I was actually taking a picture of something else but this caught my eye.
