"I'm having a butterfly's dream
Sealed off from the real world
Shielded from the storm
Yet I feel at home
Having a butterfly's dream

I'm having a butterfly's dream
Looking out, the world looking in
Imprisoned by nature, all alone
Yet I feel at home

Having my butterfly's dream
I can see the pretty colors come and go
The sun is shining, the moon a glow
I want all that to be a part of me

I want my dreaming to become a reality
I want to feel the fresh ocean breeze
I want to rest on flowers, rest on trees
I want to be part of the world that everybody sees
I feel the light flashing in

The air fill my cocoon all too soon
My wings search to spread towards the sun
And lift me to my new home-All alone
On my own to face the storm
I should have known
A dream is nothing but a dream "
/Alfred Ramos/

Thats a rather unusual pose and an intersting b/w capture with fine tones and balance. the mood is tremendous and that smile is a few million watts!

Hi Melinda,
what a nice and joyful moment you have captured here, a lovely portrait with a nice "lirycs" compliments!!

have a nice day,
Fabio.

Hello Melinda:
We know how difficult it is to make photos with children. You have known how to catch the naturalness of an infantile smile. Good choice of B&W and a perfect touch of grain for a photography full of life.
Saludos,
Pepe.

Hi Melinda,

In spite of the rather corroded white background, I like this spontaneous portait of a little girl. It's vey well composed and her smile makes this image very extraordinary.
Kind regards,

Eddie

Hello Melinda! What have you found here ... a little Pipi Langstrumpf maybe :) She does not seem really shy but a little maybe, not knowing where to place her hands. I guess she fully trusted you and seems to enjoy the photo session with you. Oh yes, she is still full of dreams and I hope that some of it comes true one day. Very nice work of yours, full of charme. Barbara.

Hi Lin,

A great smile from the kid...with the looks straight at us...
As AADIL says, her smiles are worth more than a million watts...
EXCELLENT in B/W.
All the best.

Hello Melinde. Butterfly's dream, body attitude, expression. A wonderful photo. It can be interpreted variously psychologically. The photo is a maximum performance. My acknowledgment. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hello Melinda,
what a great interaction here...that is lovely to watch...that mischevious and happy smile, her way of holding herself, timid yet already so feminine, the hair style, she is full of life and enjoying this...well done,! not an easy thing to make something interesting with children I think (never tried). This is very good looking in b/w and light. I like it a lot !
