What a beautiful picture you painted with your writing.
You’ve created a lovely scene. I couldn’t help but smile too at the images you described.

I am glad she was reaching for a camera and not a gun! – Nice job.
What dxpepper said! I still haven’t gotten over the trauma of Bambi. Lovely story, thank you.
