    Couldn't resist this one. Her dress is blue and the tiny flowers are red. graphite.jpg

    I love it ... and am especially impressed that the little girl didn't get the hem of her dress or her white pinafore muddy/dirty when picking the flowers. I can't imagine she wasn't kneeling to pick them along that brick/stone wall.;)

    Calico, I'm just curious but . . . is that a "word?" written in cursive in white lettering halfway up between the two trees?

    Thanks All ! Yourturn, no, it's a line of trees growing on a hillside. At first glance I wondered that too but on closer inspection it's just trees.

    Does anyone else wonder what she's looking at over the wall?

    You could make up all kinds of stories to go with this image.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    I love the picture! :happy::happy:

    I hope it's not a sea lion. ;) :angelic:

    Sorry, couldn't resist a joke based on a recent story of the day.

    LOL...poor kid.
    Bakersgma, I think she's looking over the wall to watch a woodland creature or maybe the river. :)
