Photographing the Anne Doll


I've had so much trouble getting the right backdrop and light for portraits of my Anne doll.  Today it came to me to take her to school as that is where she was happiest.  So, I took her to the old New Bern Academy (1809) --which is located about a block from where I live.  People were staring at me as I was laying in the grass under an oak tree and holding my camera steady.  One lady couldn't see the doll and she got so curious that I had to tell her that I was taking a picture of my doll.  She thought it must be a squirrel.  I'm sure I looked pretty strange.
