When I grow up...

Oh Yes, I totally agree, the sepia tones are perfect for the image, the simplicity of it adds so much more to the image, gives the child the perfect look of innocence so full of wonder!!!

This is beautiful, Basia. Your dress is gorgeous, so drapey and soft – a gorgeous image. :)

It’s just such a beautiful image! I think I tend to like the simplified version better but either way, excellent capture! :-)

Really love it Basia-as you say just the simplicity of it, beautiful!

cute picture reminds me of how i use to raid my older sister’s wardrobe a couple of years ago!!! aww such a cute picture!!!

Oh wow, that is just beautiful…

I really like this Basia. Love the reflection in the mirror…superb photography. I like the minimalism of this too…..which it appears to have at first glance…...but there is actually a lot going off all at once….all down to the reflection and the shadows in the ruffles of the dress. Great tones too. Doesn’t she look like her mum!

Simply lovely Basia

why not put the two up together, so we can compare? both are beautiful!

wonderful shot!

I also like this simple, sepia version more.

This is very nice. I like it. : )

Beautiful Basia, if you take it down you would be robbing people of something special

I am so amazed to see the talent out there! This is excellent, warm, elegant… I could go on and on….. :)

Gorgeous photo!

Speechless as always Basia….... people might think it elegant or simple , Its a very powerful image . Just see the expression this small angel has given…......Wowwwwwww

The wonder of childhood dreams captured in one superb photo…the whole image is fantastic right down to the flower behind her ear!!!

brilliant

wonderful capture. I like both images but this one more as it is so simple…...

This looks wonderful in sepia too, I think I like this one better!

this is so lovely, well done :)

A very strong narrative. Wonderfully composed

This is so precious, what a wonderful shot!

amazing image..

I loved this when I first saw it on the facebook photo competition. and it deservedly won, a wonderful photograph

what a fab idea – beautiful girl and beautiful dress also.

this brings back memories of me at 8yrs old wearing mums flowergirl dress that she had when she was 8. what a moment to capture thank you!

I just went through your portfolio and figured out how quickly I would run out of clever comments! You work is superb and has a lot of soul! Thank you for sharing it….

This is a very cute shot. looks like you have a great model. I like the sepia tone, I think it adds to the picture.

Wonderful composition, perfect angle, inspired idea. Sepia makes it a classy one.
Great talent you have!

Just awesome!

Your photography is inspiring.

Like a scene from a film
wonderful

Gorgeous!

love this a lot….

what an adorable composition Basia, and your daughter is gorgeous!

And the story has creeped into the childrre´s heart..
princess getting married..
with princess dresses..
and princes taking them in their arms..
and trespassing… the delicate passage of
virginity…. to womanship.
I s in reality a woman…. a truly woman,
for having lost her virginity?
And… what does the word “virginity” real means for a woman?
Oh…. besides this iutburst… I must say that your daughter is so beautiful… and doing not anything more than what I did when I was a little girl. Enjoy her rapture hertrue beauty and soul.
