40 Photographers From All Over The World Show What “Love” Means To Them
Ask a hundred different people what love means to them and you’ll get a hundred different answers. The truth is that everyone understands it in their own way – and the #Love2019 competition, organized by AGORA images, wanted to see just that.
Photographers from all over the world were asked to share what love means to them and their photos prove that love truly is a universal language. The organizers received over 15,000 submissions and selected a handful of the best ones – check them out in the gallery below!

Nice, but why not a single male couple? No adoptive parents. Just one dad photo. No uncles/aunts. No friends. No pets. A bit too stereotypical for 2019.
Thank you so much for this.
