Flickr Samplr #8: Women Portraits

The Women's Day is coming, it is marked on March 8 every year. In different regions the focus of the celebrations ranges from general celebration of respect, appreciation and love towards women to a celebration for women's economic, political and social achievements.

In some regions, the day lost its political flavor, and became simply an occasion for men to express their love for women in a way somewhat similar to a mixture of Mother's Day and Valentine's Day.

Here is a showcase of wonderful women portraits to celebrate this holiday, no matter what race, religion or background. All photos were submited to Shooting Film's Flickr group.
