As you all may know, one of the pages of mypassion.mythoughts is dedicated to my love for Rhythmic Gymnastics, the dualism of sports and arts.
In my country, this sport is less known among its Gymnastics brothers (especially Artistic) and so fewer competitions to spectate.
International competitions are always within Europe—which is half the world away from me!

That being said, I am unable to provide illustrations to accompany my writing. Sure, Google has a mountain of resources but I try not to use the photographs without prior permission.
It feels like stealing, although I do not generate any sort of income from these media.
So remember, everyone! Always credit the owners if you used any of their media on your own platform!
I decided to try my luck and approached a few photographers on Facebook and Instagram.
To my surprise, I received three “yes” within 24 hours. I even have a short yet lovely conversation with one of the photographers, Anna Kull.
I am truly grateful for their generosity: I really am! This is definitely a motivation for me to write more diligently in the future.
As I progressed further, I approached more photographers and am overwhelmed by their kindness. To date, I have permissions to use photographs from: (alphabetical order)
Anna Kull, Enrico della valle, Fanny Cortly, Indrek Kask Photos, Irene da Rocha (also known as RG Journalism), Janire C. Photos, Kate Ianuik and Olivier Aubrais.
Do visit them on their Facebook and/or Instagram accounts—they have amazing pictures that capture beyond the tangibles:
Please continue supporting me on my platforms: Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, you name it. And until then, goodbye!
