Description
This dedication is for a very dear friend of mine Marcia Gomes (MarciaGomes). Marcia and her husband Flavio Kern are truly wonderful people and almost like family to me. Marcia is a very caring lady and it shows in the lovely images she creates. Her art always has a happy and postive theme, and her gallery is a great place to go for a good time. This is a story Marcia shared with me from her childhood that I wanted to share with all of you my friends. With all the negative news everywhere it's nice to have something happy to focus on.
Rodeo Queen (For MarciaGomes): When Marcia was a little girl her and her dog Gaby would walk by her aunt's home every day on their way home. She loved the beautiful horse that her aunt had and she dreamed one day of riding it. But poor Marcia was by herself and had no way of making her dream come true. Late one evening Marcia saw the horse had a bridle on and she got a great idea. Her and Gaby went into the pen and she tied the bridle of the horse to the fence. Carefully Marcia climbed a tree next to the horse, she had a great idea of leaping from the tree onto the back of the horse. Then she would be able to ride him and make her dream come true. I tried to capture that moment here and hope you like it. Okay so you want to know what happened ? Well Gaby started barking and scared the horse just as Marcia was jumping. The horse moved and poor little Marcia tumbled to the ground. Thanks for listening, hope you got a smile.

P.S. I know Marcia would want me to say this but we are both very sad about Cecilia (SSoffia) leaving the communtiy. She wrote me a letter the other day to tell me that a few people had been very mean to her and she no longer felt comfortable here. It is a sad day when someone that nice no longer feels welcome. I am trying to talk her into staying and hope you will join me.

A really wonderful scene Dave, excellent and fun to look at, nice story to go with it. A bad thing to hear that some people are driving away artists with their remarks, this should not be allowed to happen.

Wonderful story and composition, Dave. Masterful depiction of Marcia's childhood memory. A very funny story in image and wording.

I really enjoy reading the stories of the people here on Renderosity. Your story about Marcia and her trying to get up on that horse was just too cute. I was smiling as I was reading it. You have a fabulous story telling technique. Love your picture. Great pose for Marcia - she's barely hanging from that branch. Love the puppy dog - shame on him for barking and scaring the horse. And is that horse smiling?? Finally, I like the two little birds you snuck in there. Very cute. Sorry to hear about Cecilia and people being mean to her. I hope she will ignore those folks and realize that there are a lot of really nice people (like you and Marcia) here on Renderosity and that's why it's worthwhile to stay. :)

Such a splendid image for Marcia. Splendid image and story. I wish Cecelia would come back. I miss her terribly. Bunny

Wonderful work, as always. Your lighting is perfect and the camera work is also superb. The expressions on all your subjects are priceless. Please pass along my encouragement for Cecilia to stay. I've found that the wonderful people FAR outweigh the mean ones. It's sad that some idiots can only make themselves feel good by trying to make others feel bad.
