My parents had an old fashioned Pollock's Toy Theatre. Pollocks is a very old Toy Shop in Covent Garden. They were unable to find their version so I went to Pollock's itself & took these for Nostalgia. All the flats are cardboard, the characters & some props are cardboard & fitted into wireholders which you move around manually.

The pics are handheld with no flash. I don't have another chance to shoot anything for the challenge as I'm going away & won't have access to the interent.

What do you reckon? Are they suitable for the challenge?

    Lavender
    I also took some of the Lavender stall. English Lavender is known & loved the world over & has been used for centuries as a healing herbs and to perfume rooms with Pot Pourri etc. It is a classic and the smell brings back lots of memories for me

    I think this photo is suited for the 'fake model' photoshop action.
