Children
Childhood. Especially when celebrating the Mid Autumn's Festival, I always chose lanterns which MUST be lit using candles only and my favourite design is always the BUTTERFLIES. I still remember the 'thrilling moments' of 'walking my butterfly lantern' so afraid that it will 'la ti tu' (as my grandmother liked to say in Teochew, which means 'caught fire') :p These days, I can't find anymore cellophane butterflies traditional laterns :( It has been mostly replaced with battery operated plastic icons such as Power Puff Girls and the CG cartoon characters that blinks and comes with childish musical tunes.

btw, where were the children statues taken from? interesting. never seen them before..
I agree with Zsolt. As the child, we also wanted to let people who is my friends,and let people know we are in the same group!!
Like the one in the sculpture.
Nice sculpture, nice shot!

I find their facial expressions very interesting too. See their texture of their fingers and feet...i paused for this sculpture becos of the boy on the right, somehow he looked worried, i think he is Acrophobic
