The depth of our hope can vary - as photographers we can hope for a beautiful misty morning in the forest, or no rain, there's hope that your family will arrive safely at their destinations, that you will keep your job, or that you will have enough money for food on the table.
Then there's hope that reaches the bottom of your soul - the loss of hope is inconceivable for most of us, but for some hope is completely unattainable.
Too much loss, too much heartache, just too much........
The challenge for A Photographers Craft this month was an image that inspired or perceived "Hope" - here are the winners and runners up. I hope one of these images inspires you to have "Hope" - we just can't do without it.
