Full disclosure here... I really haven't gotten the knack of photographing those incredibly neat-looking-yet-incredibly expensive dollfies yet. But, I'm working on it, and this doll meet in the park afforded me a chance to practice a bit.

Used a macro lens for some shots, and a standard zoom for the others - either way, not problems picking up details, just some problems with getting a clear background (it's a public park, and people have this tendancy to wander through it - fancy that) and from lens flare, as by the time the shooting really started for me, the sun was getting low and the best angle of the lake put me right in the path of glare. Live and learn I guess...

Thanks to people for letting me play with their dolls, and enjoy the highlights...

Aw...

Obligatory group photo, only for dolls you don't have to worry about one person always having their eyes closed...
