Folks among the flowers, No. 5

Finally, my favorite photo of the little girls. When I saw the one in front, holding her nose, I pushed the button on my camera and said a little prayer that I got the photo. I did!

And I could smell every bit of manure that she could smell, from the moment I stepped out of the car. As I walked through the field of tulips, taking in the beautiful colors and shapes, seeing so many people out enjoying the flowers and the sunshine, for the most part I soon didn't notice the smell. Too much.

I've altered the photo at PicMonkey, trying to shed some light on her pretty face.
  Hope y'all aren't tired of these two little girls yet.

Folks among the flowers, No. 3

Sisters? Cousins? Friends? I don't know, but I do know that the one in the back had stood there long enough to make her feet tired and/or hurt. I don't think she realized just how much until she got to move a bit when the other girl joined her. The adult taking the pictures had them move here and there in that narrow furrow between the two rows of tulips. Thank goodness as little girls their feet could fit there.

I asked one of the grown-ups with her about her native costume and discovered she is Hmong. More photos of her and another lovely girl coming soon.
