Do You Believe in Magic
by Melinda Schneider (morningmagenta)

Camera:

Nikon D-40X

Location:

Great Barrington, Massachusetts

United States of America

Photographer Notes:

"Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart How the music can free her, whenever it starts And it's magic, if the music is groovy It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie I'll tell you about the magic, and it'll free your soul" --song lyrics by John Sebastian of Lovin' Spoonful

Very cute capture with awesome timing, Melinda!

I know the song well - have it in my ipod 'wake up' playlist -pleasant and uplifting. This lovely spirited and carefree picture reminds me of my daughter we lost 3 1/2 years ago to cancer - she would be 10 now. The magic of her spirit lives on... (p.s. this is what got me into photography - it has been good therapy). Thanks for the happy memories - and congrats on your double win today!

I love this song!! Wonderful capture, Melinda! Congratulations on your POTD!

Great timing on the "magically" suspended hula hoop, and very nice composition.

Renee Harrell commented on October 31, 2009 09:19:

Yes, I know the song as well. Magic is the way our photography combines the spirit and mind and allows us to present "Life" as a feeling...just as your image here shows, Melinda. I feel the magic of "your" thoughts through what you see here! Congrats on your "wins" today..and thanks!

Linn Smith commented on October 31, 2009 09:28:
