Then yesterday evening there were a few clouds developing, so we went to try a few more photos. With the sun low in the sky, and the occasional cloud, I managed a few more pictures of my Indian mother and daughter, heading home through the woods carpeted with blue flowers....
It's been extremely difficult to take doll photos in the scillas this year. The 'problem', if you can call warm, sunny days a 'problem', is that clear blue skies are not ideal for doll photos. I managed a few last week when it was a bit hazy the one day, but it hadn't been good since. And the flowers continue to grow, especially with the warmer temperatures. I had planned on using my horse in the next set of photos, so had made some 'Native' accessories for him; an appropriate blanket, some beaded, fringed medallions; and I borrowed a 'bearskin' and a quiver full of arrows.

Thanks so much! It's always a challenge coming up with something new to shoot in the scillas each spring, and this year it's been especially hard. I'm so glad you like them. I was really happy with the pictures too.
