a broken doll

Perfect detail and beautiful composition.

Thank you. I am still confused about composition. Maybe I will understand just by practice. I cropped the top of the original photograph, because I thought there were too many vines. I found the head of this doll and my dogs found the body. I found the other leg later. A doll crime scene. :)

My dogs and I found this doll in three pieces (other leg not

photographed) after we installed a heavy wire fence in our back yard

for a dog pen. Comments and critique welcome. Thanks -- Janice

very well spotted...

What I like about this picture is the fact that you have taken it. It does have its merits. I am not sure if it is something I like or not but the image has provoked me to write something.

 

Well done!

Thank you very much!

Excellent " crime scene " ! You should send your dogs foraging more often ! Bill

hi janice... i like this .. is that a burn mark on the dolls forehead? very gritty! samme

Bill -- My dogs are very smart and curious. We found this after we fenced in a portion of our yard for a small dog pen.

 

Samme -- Yes, that is a burn mark. I believe that some kids in the neighborhood got hold of a broken doll and burned it, and then tossed it in our yard. After photographing it I threw it away. Fred was playing with it, and I didn't want him to get hurt.

A really beautiful shot, well seen and nicely composed, Janice!

With best regards,

Ruud.

Thank you, Ruud. I saw the hair on the doll first, then my puppy found it. After photographing it, I threw it away, so my dogs wouldn't get hurt. Best wishes, Janice
