Dolls are an irresistable subject! I always wish afterwards, that I had stopped to talk to them and taken a few more shots from different angles. But in this case the auction flea market table was owned by a frowning man who wanted to charge for photographs! I saw him looking curiously at these dollies after I left, to see if they were useful, and if so, what for.
When you read the articles by great photographers, they always say they talk to people. That works with children, especially if you show them themselves on your tiny screen.
Rag dolls give the best hugs. I love this photo. Great capture. I enjoy talking to people because I know everyone has a couple of interesting stories in them....even grumpy old men. People are a lot like books. You don't know what you will discover till you open them up a bit but in this case it looks like you got bit.
