Costa del Sol
My series *Places and faces*

Dear TL friends...This is.. in my modest opinion..
my winner. Why ?! Sitting in the Restaurant (yesterday's posting) having lunch.. a few tables away I noticed this little cutie.. looking a few times at our direction .. as children do..when they notice you'look back' they quickly look 'away' ..

Ok..now I kept looking at her and after a few seconds she ''looked to see if I look.. and on that moment I smiled 'squinting/crosseyed''on purpose..
Gee.. again she looked away and back.. this time I stick my tongue out .. and see what I got back!!
(^_^) LOVELY .. right ?!?!?

Children..so preciuos and fragile..What will become of her later.. a Doctor..Stewardess..
Nurse .. or .. downhill by meeting the wrong people... lets hope her childhood will be one of
care and love? like we should hope for kids in general.. What can we do ? a little thing.. make them smile!

Talking about kids.. I show you 3 other angels..
one is my Granddaughter Alica in Montreal

Geweldig open en openhartig gezichtje; erg fraai en ontwapenend John. Je hebt je best gedaan zowel met grimassen als met de camera.
Als je een tijdje naar dit gezichtje kijkt, begin je vanzelf te lachen.

Huub

It could be a bit sharper, but I like it anyway. Nice the sparkles in her eyes. Good job.

The longer you look you feel more and more
the urge to laugh with her.

Lovely photo and story John.. and such a little cutie.. great capture..

Thanks for sharing...

Hi John. Portretten zijn vaak een moeilijk onderwerp maar je kan het geweldig. Ook deze vind ik een beauty. Een ontwapend lach doet je hard sneller kloppen en je camere knip maar door. Heel mooi Groet Frans.

I don't know which I like more - the photo or your description of the event! This is a case where your comments really gave more meaning to the photo, John. I guess she just couldn't hold back that wonderful smile any longer with that man making all the silly faces at her.

Hee hee! I love it! Great job!
Gayle :)

Two baskets of strawberries!!! She is adorable and her toothless grin is priceless!!! Gee, Jolanda has to keep you on a short chain John, ages doesn't matter!!! lol. Great sharp photograph and gosh! no purple frame! lol!
Dank voor het delen! (wink *-^)
