"In Wonderland"

Few settings match the magic of a beach in transporting children to "Wonderland", where innocence and discovery reign supreme.

The palms, rocks, dock, hillside, and other natural elements caught my eye... but not quite as much as the wonder of the cute little girl, her image reflected in the wet sand behind her at Tortola. Green growth at the base of beach rocks suggests low tide. 3/7/07.

    A stunning shot enhanced by the little girl. She does appear to be alone in her imagination in Wonderland. Superb composition.
