Talk about soulful expression! This doll has it, and the photographer expertly captured all its essence! I love the composition, conversion to b&w and the use of selective color to focus all attention onto that expressive eye. There were two other images that were similar, and I believe are of the same doll (I never look at who has entered my contest until after I judge the photos). This one was my favorite of the three. Thank you for entering my contest, and congratulations on being among the top ten!
This doll is a real beauty! I love the story of how the photographer acquired this special doll and how she creatively posed her to bring out her personality! One of the reasons why this type of antique doll is my very favorite is the soulful expression the best of them display that is very hard to reproduce.. Thank you for entering my contest and for sharing this lovely doll with the rest of us; congratulations on second place!
Asian dolls like the ones pictured are among the most beautiful and expressive. I love how this carefully composed image captures the doll's lovely expression. The image is further enhanced by a complimentary background. Thank you for entering my contest, and congratulations on being among the top ten!

Do you have a favorite doll, or do you know anyone who has a doll with personality? Then take your best shot and submit it into this contest! There are so many different kinds of dolls to choose from. Remember, this must be doll made of materials such as plastic, porcelain, cloth or wood rather than a human being who looks like a doll. The most important aspect of this challenge is creativity and your ability to bring out the "personality" of something considered inanimate. The image may be in colour or black and white. I look forward to seeing some marvelous images of dolls!
