And the French photographer Réhahn, one of those photographers who can perfectly capture human emotions, offered us a day of open doors into the souls of many people from different parts of the world.
Remember Isaiah Webb aka Incredibeard? The husband has got some serious competition in the bizarreness of what to do with his beard.

Sometimes you just need to be in the right place at the right time to get a good photo. Although professional photographers will tell you that patience is often the key, the following photos will convince us otherwise. Good photography is a very broad concept.
