Street Portrait, Notting Hill Carnival 2007

This photo was taken during the Notting Hill Carnival in 2007. Held each August Bank Holiday since 1966, Notting Hill Carnival has attracted up to 2 million people in 2007. This is the second largest street festival in the world after Rio, and the largest celebration of its kind in Europe. For the ones of you wondering what's on her face, no this is no mud, no costume make-up, but chocolate... No wonder the big lovely smile !

Photoburst is a photo of the day contest focusing on Travel Photography.

Everyday (from the 1st until the 28th), among all images uploaded by our contributors, we publish a photo of the day (POTD).
Every week (on the 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th), among all POTDs of the preceding week, we select a photo of the week (POTW).
On the 30th we select the best POTW as photo of the month (POTM).

The author of the POTM receives:
a US$50 gift certificate to Kiva + (in even-numbered months only) an invitation to be Photoburst's guest editor in the following month!
