Faded memories . . .
I did a number of versions of this still life – in the end I closed my eyes and chose one at random! One does get a tad jaded after looking at these images for too long!

Lovely shot and composition. This would be perfect for a girls room (in a refuge maybe!)
Rosalie Dale IPA
You are kind Stuart – thanks for the positive comment.
Warren Williams
Stunning, love the comp, the tones, in fact everything.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Ah well most of it is your fault Warren – mentoring me along with a bulldozer when I got a bit reluctant!!! Thanks for the encouragement!
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Thanks Warren for adding this to your favs!
Rosemary Scott
This is beautiful…. my mother would love it…..
Hmmmmm….
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Thanks so much Rosemary – esp for adding this to your favourites. This is my old teddybear so he’s pretty ancient and ‘fredbare’.

Noelene Davies
Fabulous treatment Rosalie. Is that a Wendy Boston Teddy bear? I still have my old teddy as well and it is a Wendy Boston Teddy only thing is the stuffing has gone out of it.lol
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Poor old Ted has no label so I have no idea if he is a ‘brand’ name fur-person or not Noelene! He may be missing hair but he still has his stuffing thankfully! Thanks for the encouragement!
GailD
Gorgeous Rosalie. Maybe you should name it ‘A Timeless Piece’ as Daniel indicated.
Love the ideas you come up with & your processing of them.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Thanks Gail. I seem to keep coming back to the vintage look!
Hans Kawitzki
