The Scream

Had a fun Sunday morning at the Atlanta Botanical Garden taking pictures of my friend Holly’s beautiful little girls. The sweltering heat was no match against the energy of Madeleine, though signs of it were evident in her rosier-than-usual cheeks and her shoulder-length hair shortened by the sweat.

At the end of our visit Madeleine happily plunged into the fountain in the children’s garden — and I was not-so-secretly wishing I could do the same. While watching her I took note of some of the other kids splashing around, having fun, laughing — and one, screaming:

Shrilling in ecstacy

Girl screams in delight at the Atlanta Botanical Garden.

Honestly, I couldn’t believe I caught this moment. I heard the start of the shrill and somehow, with my camera still in my lap, focused and shot. I was hoping I got something. This was definitely better that something.
