You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Beautiful and delicate - a lovely portrait, Steven - but don't say " A spoonful of sugar" because the following words are "lets the medicine go down" - Kidding, I know you don't mean that :)
I've meant to comment on this a number of times, but my internet provider has decided to put us all through the trials of Job, so I hope this one goes through because I wanted to tell you that I think this is one of your best adult photos. Excellent job, my friend : )
"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web." Pablo Picasso
To be honest, this isn't normally my sort of thing, but is is just so good I had to comment. It has a kind of timeless feel to it, and love the soft focus and colouring here.
