The wind had a gentle feel to it that day when little Emma started off her day to play. She had put on her prettiest dress because she knew Bobby Douglas would also be wandering the woods that day, in search of some fun. Her long golden locks of hair, flew in the wind and shone in the sunlight like fine threads of spun gold. Wandering along her usual path, she found the clearing where she and Bobby usually met each Saturday morning and would spend the day, seeking treasures, pretending to be explorers.
She sat upon her swing, swaying happily in the solitude of the moment, unaware of anything or anyone else around her.
"Is that you, Bobby Douglas?" she called out, hearing the snapping of twigs coming from beside her.
There was silence, then the snap of a shutter from a camera.
"Why'd you take my picture?" Emma asked, unfamiliar with the woman taking her photograph.
"Because you're very pretty," the woman answered. "I just think that you're very pretty and I wanted to take a picture of you."
"MAMA!!!!" the little girl screamed, jumping from her swing and running into the woods as fast as her little legs could carry her.
Stunned at the little girl's reaction, the photographer slowly walked away and headed home.
It was days later, when the photo had been edited and entered into a photo challenge on a site called DPC before police showed up at her door.
"That's the PERVERT!" little Emma screamed!
The photographer made bail the next day, but her computer was confiscated, containing hundreds of pictures of lovely children in beautiful scenery or posed for cute shots. She has yet to stand trial but her lawyers will argue that she is simply entering DPC photography challenges. Prosecution has yet to comment. ;)
Photographer found comment helpful.
