Thanks for looking!

2.

Number two doesn't do much for me but I like number one quite a lot, even in color. She looks a little too old to be playing with dolls out in public.

#1 is great. The doll, cellphone and reflection are wonderful.

I like the first. The positioning is excellent AND the barbie (assumed by me) is so out of place that it helps elevate this shot.

Thanks guys!
I really wish I had gotten the Barbie AND her high heeled leg, but she had moved the doll to her lap...

I can only imagine what is going on here.... she's Chinese, and visiting Chicago with her little sisters doll (kinda like a flat stanley?) and maybe she's talking to her sister half a world away???

I always have a story....
Thanks again,
Trish

Ah, The Bean, an endless source of great images. I think the first image is the better of the two. You might try in a square crop, eliminating the empty space at the bottom. The color in #2 bothers me some. Did you add purple and green in post? I can see that it goes with her clothing, but I don't think it works.

Definitely #1, and definitely without your name on top of it. And I love your story!
