We arrived back home yesterday evening after a week up north. It was nice to get away, even if the weather didn't exactly cooperate. But then, cloudy skies are better for doll photography anyways - so I took a LOT - between rain storms.
I only took along Baron and Naomi with lots of warm clothes, and a box of props for whatever opportunity would present itself. But with it being so wet and rainy, there wasn't much opportunity for anything other than photographing them posed on top of a picnic table, or hand held by Jan. Plus my spinal issues were really acting up, so even when it was somewhat 'dry' I didn't get down very often, although I did manage a couple of times. The challenge was always to make use of 'forced perspective' to make the dolls fit into the landscape.
So I took 'travel photos' of Baron and Naomi, as if they were on an RV trip regardless of the weather. I plan to post the photos day by day, or from certain places they visited, but will give you a sneak peak first.....
