Narrative ALL in the golden afternoon....(Volks, Delf, Dollshe)

Feb 4, 2016

    1. "The dream-child moving through a land
      Of wonders wild and new...
      And half believe it true."
      Lewis Carroll

      Ruby was reading a silly old book....

      When she must have fallen asleep?
      Because all that she saw seemed so real, and yet so odd!
      Where ever had she gotten this dress?

      "Marianne, bring me my tea" said the Queen...for, she MUST be THE Queen!!

      The nursemaid kept trying to hand the sleeping baby to the duchess...

      But the little demon wouldn't stay still!

      The Hatter seemed quite astounded with all the company at his table.

      While the dormouse, well a mouse at least, chuckled cheerfully in the teapot...

      Curiouser & curiouser thought Ruby...

      "I do hope they'll find me a seat soon"

      "But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
      "Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
      "How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
      "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
      Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

    3. Fantastic! Love the photos and story and it so captures the spirit of the original! Cthulhu certainly adds to the wonderfully surreal madness!
       
    4. Thanks Julie! For all of the Alice stuff that has been done, it is always fun to think of yet another way to play with the outrageous creativity that Louis Carroll gave to us with his books. <3
       
    5. Wonderful photoshoot. That amigurumi cthulhu surprised me! What a beautiful assemblage you have of both dolls and props.
       
    6. Thank you sakuraharu! I always loved the silliness of the baby that kept turning into a pig. And, having a cthulhu handy, it seemed fitting. ;) I am indeed quite fortunate in the dolls who have found me. <3
       
    7. Your photos just draw me into the scenes. You have a wonderful group of dolls there, too.
       
    8. Love it:love:love
      I'm a fan of Alice too.
      I love how you set up the scene and the little teapots are really cute XD
       
    9. What did Ruby have to eat that day before she dozed off? :ablink:

      I love your Cyndy; I'm a fan of Evenstar face-ups, and she's a treasure. :)

      The lit candles impart a lovely glow to the scene!
       
    10. Oh wow, I hadn't thought to check in lately.
      I'm so glad you all have enjoyed the photos!
      Ms beamlette, Ruby did have quite the dream didn't she?!?!
      More than simply a treasure, my Cyndy was a gift!?!?!? So an unexpected, well appreciated treasure indeed. <3
      I am glad we finally figured out how to create some candles as the candle glow & melted wax on the unlit candles really adds to the photos.

    13. The richness of these photos and the scenery is really lovely, great work!
       
    14. I just love your photo story! And ofcourse I ended up with doll-envy.....Lovely dolls, lovely photos!!
       
    15. Amazing photoshoot !
      I love the book (and the rat in the tea-pot xD )
