ldavidson 4 Posted March 17, 2011 This was taken last summer in Calgary on the last day of the Calgary Stampede, at the Bownesian's Picnic. There were bands playing all afternoon and this little girl danced and danced. You see by the expression on her face that she was enjoying the music. I think she may have been born to dance. I shot this using continuous slow, then combined the images in Photoshop. Please see larger.Thanks for looking! Link to comment

trisha jean-angela 5 Posted March 18, 2011 I absolutely love this! There is nothing like the joy and freedom that a child exhibits to make one smile! I love how her dress picks up on the colors of the green grass and very blue sky; her blonde hair and the white wisps of clouds just further tie into the feeling of innocence. Great work Linda; I enjoy this one so much and I wish I knew how to combine photos like this. Very well done! Thank you for sharing this and making me smile. :) Link to comment

color 3 Posted March 19, 2011 Good work Linda. This is a fun shot. You did a good job artistically and technically. The colors make a bright splash in my gray matter (that's good). Link to comment
