My lovely sister gave me these dolls before I had my 3rd child, my mum also gave me a set and I wondered if I was going to have twins lol. They are really beautiful and handpainted, there are two other larger ones that have more red on them. I might have another try at this in better lighting, this was taken late at night withcrap lighting, my tripod and long exposure, but I had fun doing it after a failed attempt earlier today wearing a baby in a sling.

You got a lovely shot here! I also wish I had more time to get the shots 'just right' but with family demands, it just isn't possible at times. Some days just getting a shot for the day is good enough, even if it's not exactly the way you wanted.
