I spotted this tiny little fairy hovering around the “Love” sculpture at the Scottsdale Civic Center park. With wand in hand, she’s about to bring a smile to the face of that gentleman sitting inside the sculpture.
I was in Scottsdale on Saturday to visit the Scottsdale Museum for Contemporary Art (SMOCA for short). It was the last weekend for an exhibit titled “At the Crossroads of American Photography: Callahan, Siskind, Sommer”. The three photographers, Harry Callahan, Aaron Siskind, and Frederick Sommer are credited with helping to define photography as an art form. One of the photographers, Frederick Sommer lived and worked in Prescott Arizona. The photos were mostly from the 1940’s and 50’s and they were wonderful works of art. I was inspired.

Shalom to you in Phoenix.
Hey, wait a minute! That looks like a postage stamp I've seen, right?!
Love and a fairy! What else could be sweeter than this? Fantastic capture, Sharon!
Nice shot, Sharon. Anybody can take a photo of the LOVE sculpture, but to get the fairy and the man makes the shot.
I do LOVE this photo. It is a rare thing to see a fairy out and about!
What great timing to capture all this in the photo! LOVE it.
cute little fairy and great capture with the LOVE statue.
Very cute photo. You were there at the right time.
A cute fairy spreading love and joy — beautiful!
That sculpture used to be in Philadelphia.
I do love it! I think Leif is right, that postage stamp had to have been made after this.
