“Oh, wow.”

My thoughts exactly.

Lucky Athena. That is a picture to treasure.

I love pics like this, and the way her hair is floating really makes it work. Keep a hi-rez copy for her — this is something she’ll want when she’s older.

Athena, the goddess of wisdom is in her realm, and all is well with the world…

You’re leaving yourself open for all kinds of sightings of creatures and shapes and everthing under the nebula by posting such a photo because people will see and uncover things in the background of the photo that resemble shapes that they had on mountains in New Hampshire to creatures of myth. There’s a word for that kind of thing. What is it? What is the term for not remembering such names that are at your finger tips? There should be a special key on the keyboard for ?..another word I can’t crystalize.
