Great photo. Like how the little child is contrasted by the people in black in the background.

ya know...this feels really creepy to me. the out-of-focus men in the background in black suits, the expression on the kids face, his pose holding the butterfly...

butterflies can symbolize death and this picture looks like the child is sending off the winged insect to harvist another soul for his insatiable hunger. no one would ever suspect ultimate evil hiding behind the younge and carefree eyes of a child would they?

I'm not evil...I'm just hungry **manic grin**

I used to be in groups, but they all went and died on me. Ah wells, such is life, although this one died and came back (badum-ching). ~Brain-Damaged

That's a totally awesome picture. It took me a sec to realize that I think it's in the Meijer Gardens! Looks like it should be a print or something. It's just so...haunting. I love it!

Thanks...it was just one of those oppertune moments, ya know? :butterflytwo: I really don't think it would have turned out the same if it'd been a digital image...there's just something about manual photography that looks better. :deviation: But yeah, don't mind my rambling...thanks again for the comment!
