hey doll

This really sad looking little doll was lying on the floor of the cottage I was in yesterday. It reminds me of Toy Story with the kid next door who was always making strange hybrid toys. I wasn't even into dolls as a child but I find something weirdly fascinating about them. Thank you so much for the favs and comments yesterdays photo. Such a lovely boost when I've been meh about photo stuff - much appreciated

Superb shot, you've created a very scary atmosphere.

[Spanner]

Nice shot. Really grimy and atmospheric. I like the colours.

@johnmnewman Hi!! I was wondering where you've been - you always spring to mind when I find somewhere abandoned - loved your last place :)

[thirtysevenways]

I find this kind of disturbing Ingrid but a wonderful find and as always a lovely composition. Fav! Sorry for lack of comments. Life and all that taking up my time.

Man that looks kinda fucked up

[Ingrid Budge]

@thirtysevenways Thanks - I've been kind of absent on here too - so please don't apologise - I have heaps of catching up to do as well - you have young children so how you manage is beyond me !!

[Rachel Withey]

God that's scary

[George]

You really do find some creepy things ingrid, this is fantastic. I have a picture in my mind of you at home surrounded by cameras and broken toys, rotten furntiure and holes in the roof, i'm pretty sure it's not true but it makes me smile

[Jackie greenfield]

Ooh dark!! Darker the better! Awesome atmosphere ! I loved my dolls as a kid & I imagine this was once loved & played with :-)

[Hope D Jennings]

Lovely and haunting!

[Andrew S]

You hit the nail on the head with the comparison with the Toy Story doll, Ingrid. That was the first thing that popped into my head too :)

[Paul "Snapchap" Everest]

Love this shot, Ingrid. Very moody and I like the Toy Story allegory too.

[Peter de Graaff]

Freaky

[Rachel]

I love it and funny how it made me think of the weird ones from toy story too. There is something creepy about dolls, don't know what it it, maybe the way they look at you, my Ouse is full of them with two young girls! amazing capture, love the shot

[Mac]

Oh, Ingrid, this is what I love about your interpretations and eye of the world. This makes me laugh and is haunting at the same time.

[Claire.J]

It's kinda creepy.

[Humphrey Hippo]

I wouldn't call it a sad-looking doll - I'd call it downright terrifying. ;)

[Suse♡]

Scary great, love the pov!

[Tamzin]

That is just like the Toy Story scene - gives me shivers!

[John]

Freaky

[Sheila G]

Compelling and intriguing and a bit sinister...Fav

[Sean O'Neill]

Definitely the doll from Toy Story. Great shot.

[Lisa Stein]

Eerie, haunting image. What is it about old dolls that can be so unsettling? Love your POV here and the composition with the window.

[jerry plume]

This is so creepy good! Awesome shot, Ingrid!

[Mary Downing Hahn]

I find dolls fascinating too. I love the mystery and loss in this scene -- it has an undertone of tragedy and abandonment. Fav.

[Deni]

Golly this is well spooky, fav for me here.

[Beau]

Creepy, but beautiful in a way.

[Leana Niemand]

Creepy yes, but a fantastic shot!!!

[Gail]

Looks like something straight out of a scary movie. Great angle.
