I love these, Kari – and I love Matisse too! There are two things here. The pictures of the little girl are very good, but what I think really lifts these photos is the post’s title, combined with your shadow as you take the photos – very well done! If anything, I like the upper photo best, because she is partly in your shadow and she has a questioning, sideways look that makes the shot a little more mysterious. Adrian

How wonderful! I adore these.
The Matisse reference is perfect, your shadow could be one of his cutouts/forms..
