Recently I had the honor of going to a quilt show with my wife.
I actually enjoy these events. I get to see art in a medium which is a real challenge for the artist. It is amazing to see what these Artists can do with simple pieces of colored and patterned fabric.
Quilts shows are ideal places to take pictures. They are mostly indoors and often have great lighting and high ceilings.
There are great people to watch at the show. Being a good photographer is a skill in watching people and capturing them at their best.
There there are the surprises. This yearly show, which I have attended several times over the the span of 20 years, also has a group of doll makers displaying their art.
These are amazing dolls. Works of art. the challenge is to make images which display them properly. It is not always as easy as it sounds.

I am always looking for items to capture in photos photos. These dolls caught my eye. This one is about 8-10 inches tall. She is displayed with her companions looking on as if they are her audience. I have posted a few more to my Photostream on Flickr.
It was fun to take pictures of these dolls. The presentation of display and the artistry of doll maker made this quest easy.
What's that in the sky? A bird? a plane?
Or just a bit of whimsy.
