Hello Ursula, I love those dolls, and yes they really are a great work of art! This is a well captured close-up with the basket in the bg. Good shallow dof. Well done, great colours.

Take care, Yan :)

Hello Ursula !

Cool collection these Babuka dolls . I am an avid collector too .... but of different objects (*_^).

Pretty good composition here with a great matching frame suiting perfectly the light and mood of your photo.
Well done.

We are flying on Sunday for Cuba. So I am really running short of time for TL. I am not supposed to be on duty outside office hours this week, but I am replacing my colleague who is sick.... So I have less time than I expectec to prepare myself before the Big Day!

Many thanks for the kind words, and your recent visit. They are truly appreciated.

Cheers!
Robert

Hi Ursula! I've learned new today that Babushka is a doll. In the Philippines, it's a gay lingo which means bu-bye or goodbye :) But what really is a babushka? Is it a town or a person in Russia? Anyway, I like your close face POV showing the brush skills in this artwork.
TFS,
Freddie :)

Hi Ursula:
I have not seen these before, but thanks for the notes:)
Your works are really wonderful Ursula, and this one too is outstanding aretcopy work. The details are excellent. You have applied the 'rule of 3rds' which gives this doll a 3D effect, the lighting also is unmistakebly outstanding!!!!
