I spotted this toddler in front of her mother's booth at the farmer's market. She scooted over to touch, then grab the flowers and in the next shot they were in her mouth! I wish I could have been on her level...such a cutie, but I did the next best thing and Ortonized the flowers, hoping that they looked that good to her!

EDIT NOTE TO THE MODS: THIS IS NOT MY CHILD, NOR IS SHE ANY RELATION TO ME AT ALL: THEREFORE, I DO NOT WISH TO TRY TO ENTER THIS IN THE "MY COMMUNITY" GALLERY. THANK YOU.Comments

Superb image with great colors and clarity! She looks very lovely. Think that you succeeded in showing how tasty those flowers looked to her!!

Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end.
My first impression was that this was an image taken far back in time as it has a very nostalgic composition and tones to me. Reading your narrative does me conclude now that both your photographic skills and using 'orton' gave me that impression.
Excellent capture PJ.

Colorful and cute. I bet the mother would love to have a copy of this shot. Good work with the Orton, too. Very nice, PJ.

Hey
Um what a golden image PJ !
Are you sure we're looking at a girl ? Giving it that thingy majiffy affect gives this colour upload a real touch of class. I'm looking forward to the follow up shot .. hey I'm pleased I'm not the flower seller. :o)
Well done boss

- Richard Brinsley Sheridan
i think ortonizing hit the spot. it's so great that your mind goes to that place and sees it as an enhancing device. your sense of knowing what to apply at just the right time is wonderful. i agree with cornelius in calling it a nostalgic piece.

Although this little one is cute PJ, the capture is more than cute, it is a beautiful portrait of a moment in time; a time to cherish; a time to remember when one is old and looking back over ones life. You certainly have a good eye for this genre. I love it!

I'm planning on buying a new camera...does anyone recommend a relatively nice one in a reasonable price?
Beautiful capture. I love the Orton on the flowers. It really makes the scene i think. Great job of capturing this precious moment.

Nice photo Peej and as I said in another post, "little children are the true flowers of the earth." The Orton gives it a brand new flavor.

Great idea to ortonize the flowers. It gives them an attractive glow that would draw a child's attention. Never know where you're going to find your next great shot sometimes. This one is so good.

'Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.'
PJ, this post just has it all - great lighting, candid pose, beautiful colors, great composition. Someone once told me that 2 of the marks of great art are whether or not it tells a story all by itself and whether or not it touches someone. This succeeds on both levels.

Nice to see another people shot from you PJ, there aren't enough on this site. I like the use of light in this and the orton is a nice touch.

An adorable child + a basket of colorful flowers + great composition ... sounds like an equation for a wonderful photograph. Apparently you excelled in math. A lovely scene PJ very well presented ... but I'm going to have to do some research ..."Ortonized" has me scratching my dome.

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.
Love all the colours in this photograph, the perfect child photograph, just wonderful stuff from you again.
