June 15, 2019 – NATIONAL SMILE POWER DAY – NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY DAY
NATIONAL SMILE POWER DAY
June 15th is the day we observe National Smile Power Day. This is a day for everyone to share the power of the smile.
From the good morning greeting and the first “How may I help you?” present yourself with a smile. No matter where you are employed, job seeking, retired or looking for new horizons starting the day with a smile is certainly more empowering than a pout or grump. Starting with a smile first is easier than trying to get there later in the day.
When you smile at someone, you are telling them that they are valued and worth the smile that you just gave them. Smiles are moral boosters and confidence builders.
Research has proven that smiling really does increase attractiveness and likability between humans. Smiling creates a greater trust and increased interpersonal cooperation. Smiling at someone can help them to relax and relieve their stress while at the same time, it will make you feel right. Smiling (even if you do not feel like it) will lift your mood and can make you a happier person.
HOW TO OBSERVE
Challenge yourself to smile more often today. Use a smile to disarm a tense situation, or simply smile during your daily tasks. Use #SmilePowerDay on social media.
HISTORY
Within our research, we were unable to find the creator of National Smile Power Day.
That is okay too ! It made me smile !

How to make anyone SMILE NATURALLY in photos!
Seven tips, tricks and ways to get anyone to smile naturally and genuinely in photos. Easy way too boost the quality of your photography and videography resu...
Good afternoon, my friend SGT John " Mac " McConnell for making us aware that today is both National Smile Power Day and Nature Photography Day.
Thank you for posting the music video of Steely Dan performing Peg.
The images of Norma Jeane Mortenson who is better known as Marilyn Monroe are haunting.
Kudos to our friends CW5 Jack Cardwell and SPC Margaret Higgins for posting their pictures of fauna and flora over the years.
Getting people to smile for "professional" photographs requires patience and artful skill especially when photographing youngsters and disgruntled adults :-)
Images of smiles:
1. 1980-05 Company H-3.
2. 1996 Caleb, Daniel & Ethan with me 1996 for Community Church Directory.
3. 2012-09-09 Stephen & Maria Elena Ford at the Huff's Life Group Meeting.
While this is focused on professional images, many of these tips have worked for me :-)

3. Make funny sounds
