It's time for another Worldwide Photohunt!

Here are the guidelines: You select one of your own photos to post that in some way utilizes the topic. Use the topic as a concrete prompt, or find a novel approach. Each person, just one post/photo per thread topic, (or two if you must)please. Photos should be resized to be no wider than 600 pixels. Too-large photos slow down the loading of the thread, and will be deleted. Read about how to post a photo in a thread, here . If you have an idea for a photo hunt topic, contact one of the Mods to offer the suggestion instead of beginning another thread.

Posting photos in the thread gives your permission for SlowTrav to eventually move the photos over to Photohunt albums in the Slow Photos Galleries .

This week's prompt is "Youthful."
You're encouraged to describe your photo--where you shot it, details of what you were doing or what was going on, etc.

So cute! This might be the only time that I've ever thought Crocs looked good on someone!

These children were just about to lead one of the processional floats (or "tronos") for the Easter processions in Malaga this year.

Youthful flirtation by boat. The lake in front of Alfonso XII Monument in Parque del Retiro, Madrid.
I love the body language from the guys in the middle boat. And the way the guys in the other boat seem to be waiting their turn.

These school children were only too happy to pose for me while they were on a school excursion at the Tower of London. Aren't they cute!

Lunch break for these teenagers in Istanbul last September.
It's a street filled with old shops selling musical instruments and accessories: you can see the shop window next door.

Local boys having a blast at Marina Corta in Lipari, Aeolian Islands, in mid-May 2009. They looked like they were going to jump into the water, so I focused on the edge of the dock and clicked the shutter just as they started to run, hoping that I would capture at least one of them going in. I love the result!

These boys in Siena were clearly youthful, but why was I so sure - perhaps mistakenly - that they were from Down Under? Smile

I took this photo in Phnom Penh in Cambodia. It was in April and they were celebrating New Year and one of the new traditions seems to be putting talcum powder on faces of other people. It seems to be a part of the flirting scene as well as this is one of the year where they can touch the person they like (in order to smear in the powder). I guess the girl on the right was popular as she was covered in powder :-)

These boys in the small village of Vers Pont du Gard wanted to practice English with me. I asked them how old they were and they replied "twenty." I thought they were teasing me until I realized that they had "twenty" confused with "twelve" -- I guess because they both start with the same sound!

This summer when I visited my home country, the Philippines, I visited a school my California school adopted to deliver some donations (books, supplies, pencils, etc.). These beautiful children were there and were happy to pose. There must have been a scout meeting after school that day as I saw many in uniform.
