Adele Enersen “Mila’s Daydreams”

It’s hard to take a good snapshot of an infant.  They can barely hold their heads up and have a continual tendency to nod off, which inevitably squishes up their faces and spoils the picture.  If you want a good picture of a baby, you usually have to wait a while.  Like say, six months…
Which makes Adele Enersen’s photos all the more remarkable.  During her maternity leave in Helsinki, Adele created a project called “Mila’s Daydreams” which deftly and imaginatively addressed her newborn daughter’s limited range of expression.  These are some of her delightfully-inspired photographic images from that project, and you can find many more at her blogspot page.
Do babies dream?  Can they imagine colors and textures and whole new worlds when this one is still so new and unknown?  The real answer is probably dry and uninteresting; I far prefer Adele’s where paperplates become space helmets and blankets can be anything from elephants to skylines to surfing waves.
