knobbly knees and all! by maggiemae

knobbly knees and all!

Katy @grammyn ' said she wanted a picture of me when I was learning ballet, after last night's picture of the most elegant image and the accompanying blossom tutu!
This was actually taken in 1957 and of course was B&W. I colorised it and put a new blossom tutu on!
Thankful for:
my iPhone takes a good photo from the old albums!
Aaw ! so delightful !

You look so sweet in this picture. Great edit and sweet ballerina pose.

Good job you edited this photo in Spring, if you had done it in Autumn your blossom tutu would be falling off. ha ha.

Brilliant. Every ballerina should have a tutu like that. Cleverly done.

Wow you really were a ballerina…. Very poised & your flower tutu gives an added embellishment.
September 7th, 2021

@onewing @ludwigsdiana I'm laughing too! However in Autumn I could have had a golden leaf on the tutu - just like Adam (& Eve)!

@happypat The post is not as good as I should have had, Pat but at that age I was not into being different!

@haskar Thank you, Hanna for that nice comment! I think it could be a lot better!

How marvelous in every way!

Well, now aren't you just a prima dona ballerina in the making! You would look lovely on top of a jewelry box. I always wanted one of those little dancers but never had one and I was never good at ballet either. One teacher even told my mother not to waste her money anymore. I think that was when I started taking piano lessons- which I was much better at! Nice work on the restoration and the flowery tutu!

@olivetreeann
Ann, I was the opposite - not allowed to do ballet - had to learn the piano. But I gradually wore my parents down by doing terribly at the piano and asking again and again!

Great work on the colourising. Did you do that in Photoshop?
November 11th, 2021  
@cdcook48 No, Photoshop is too advanced for me, Chris! This was available on My Heritage.
