Memories of Childhood

Suzy is Smokin'

Last year, a friend of mine commented that I was good at taking pictures of dolls. True enough. She asked me if I would do a photo shoot of her favourite childhood doll, Suzy.

It was a beautiful day at McGeachie's Pond. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, Suzy was cooperating and working with the camera. And then, without warning, my mind went on a mischievious bent (some might argue that I was just being myself). It wasn't hard to find a cigarette butt on the ground (that's a whole other topic for discussion), and Suzy had one of those mouths that used to take a baby bottle... well, the above photo speaks for itself.

I am very grateful that my friend has a sense of humour. I think that Suzy looks contemplative.
