Un vrai rêve que cette image (au sens littéral!;)...

The rich, elaborate texture of the floor provides an ironic counterpoint to the hard life of this girl. So what else to do but sleep, perchance to dream?

Oh Kal, this is wonderful! A simple, yet powerful image. I suppose you didn't wait until the child fell down on the floor :-)

I really hope that she is having a sweet dream, but it is still a poignant sight to me. Having to look after her DVD stall, the little girl can't sleep in her own bed at 10pm, and she is so sleepy that she even takes a standing nap...

But again, I don't want the girl feels the hardship in life, I hope she is having a sweet hollywood dream!

The image and the title go wonderfully together, Jeff is right.
I love this little girls dreaming. Sometimes I dream like her.
But most of times I must realise it's to late for me now ;-)))

Great shot. Funny now a title can make such a difference. I wish there was a *bit* more detail in what the child is selling. Still, great find.

I love this image of childhood dreams. It reminds me of an image I made of a little Laotian boy dreaming on the seat of a motorcycle (http://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/40197673 ).

the slightly soft focus really adds to the surreal dream idea. cute shot, K!

Not a hip shot Bill. Took about 5 walking towards her. Her mom is just to my left talking to someone. K
