A Melodic Spring Day

Her name is Melody. I asked if I might be permitted to take a picture of her and her dog Baby. She said yes. Unaccountably, she called me a genius (she didn't see the pictures I took, nor did she ask to see them) and told me I ought to make a profession of photographing people with their pets. She said I just had a way about me. It was a beautiful spring-like afternoon, but it was she who made my day. Strange and wonderful how complete strangers can touch and inspire us.
