Hi, from Vancouver!!

We've been on the road for over two weeks now, and am at Mikey's in Vancouver, so can post an update on my blog. It's been interesting so far - especially for doll photography. The Badlands were too hot and sunny, many of the places I had wanted to take doll photos - like the Beartooth Highway - northeast entrance to Yellowstone - were still closed because "closed in winter" there means until July, and we had to leave Yellowstone in a hurry because a blizzard hit. Every day has been overcast, some had a touch of sun, and most had some rain. One good thing about all the overcast, drizzly weather throughout Oregon, Washington and BC, means no high-contrast doll photos or dolls discolouring from too much sunshine. Here's a few sneak peak photos from the ones I could post with minimal work.......

Kyle and Maya crossing the Bighorn Mountains in Wyoming....

Maya, Aeran and Byuri traversing the bluffs overlooking the ocean at Bandon, Oregon.....

Asa and Byuri resting on Ruby Beach, Olympic National Park, Washington.......

The next few days should be interesting. We are starting  back east tomorrow, and the forecast is all rain, with snow expected in the Rockies. Not the best for scenery shots, but might be okay for doll shots.

Great photos! The beautiful natural surroundings add so much to the story you are telling with your dolls.
