The six year old is distracted and calls us over to see what he's found in the sand dunes at Belongil Beach yesterday. I'm thinking shell, driftwood, parched seaweed sculpture - he's a very creative six year old! But no, here's this extremely friendly, adorable little Praying Mantis bringing so much joy to the child. A picture of pure innocence and LOVE. Immediately I saw a photo opportunity and after many attempts, waiting for the moment of absolute connection, I believe I nailed it with this one. Another magic moment for me at Blue Space Art (aka Byron Bay Beach Photography).
