Waiting for Mother

Waiting for Mother

This girl was waiting for her mother who became lost in Black Sheep Books yesterday afternoon.
The girl would wander a bit then begin to dance and spin around.

    Love how you managed to capture the movement of her hair. And, there’s something about the photo that will probably take many of us back to when we were kids waiting for mom and having to amuse ourselves any way possible, usually through our imaginations.

    Insightful comment, thanks Gayle. She reminds me for some reason of the young gymnasts we’ve been seeing in London.

      Thanks Rick. There’s a series of shots which, together, show the girls movement much better. I wish she’d smile a bit…
