Thanks for the comment. Nice to know there are others in the Bay Area. No photos of your girl(doll)?

Of course, they ask "Why are you taking photos of a doll?"

I answered " I can have the most gorgeous woman here to photograph."

There were dozens of beautiful women, today, but only one beautiful doll.

Ana is one of the luckiest dolls alive. Road Trip looked so fun. Most dolls stay at home watch tv, read, play board games, video games.
She is great to have you!

Morning,
After photos on the north end, I drove over the bridge to get some shots from the San Francisco side.

You can see the hills above the bridge. This was where the previous shots were from.

Next stop was by Torpedo Wharf. Home of what was suppose to be last weeks shoot.

As you can see it was cooling off and the breeze was kicking.

Had an Indian family hold down the blanket for me while I went to get Ana out of the Miata. The expression on their face when I returned with Ana. WTF? Then, of course, they ask if they can photograph her. Only took a few shots, getting too windy and late in the afternoon. Also, wanted to take advantage of having the family help me take Ana's blanket back to the car with me as I carried Ana. If not, her blanket would have blown out to the bay.

Final stop, Fort Point
- CIMG1407.JPG (777.99 KiB) Viewed 2450 times
Ana didn't want to leave the car. Too windy.
- CIMG1409.JPG (919.1 KiB) Viewed 2450 times
So, I just got a few photo of her in the convertible with the fort and bridge in the background
- CIMG1411.JPG (839.54 KiB) Viewed 2450 times
That concludes my road trip. Hope you enjoyed the photos.
Take care

Thanks for viewing. I am 187cm. Ana with heels is probably about 175cm.
Beautiful day, today. Not hot, 10C,68F and sunny. Will take Ana out today for photos at a local place that is popular for weddings on weekends, usually quite during the week. Pulgas Water Temple.

Great photos. I guess if people questioned you and you didn't wish to give a full explanation about her purpose you could say that you are a photographer taking some photos for a photography class studying lighting.

What a great road trip companion: lovely, doesn't talk over the music and helps you qualify for the commuter lane in your two-seater!
What comments did you get about the doll from people around you?

Thanks for the comments HSP. Well, two things, if I charged $1 for letting people take photos of Anastasia or if I got a nickel for every commuter lane comment, I would have made more than enough to cover the cost of purchasing Anastasia.
Yes, she makes a perfect traveling companion, especially in a Miata. I am always amused when other drivers are checking her out on the highway, thinking that she is a "Hot Chick" , then noticing after seconds that she is not moving. This is usually followed by a smile or a laugh.
As for comments, most absolutely love her. They are amazed at how realistic she looks and even more so when I let them touch her skin. I kinda feel like I am some ambassador to us doll owners, so I always try to present Anastasia in a dignified way. Sexy, but proper real women's clothing. Even myself, I will always wear dress pants, shoes and button up shirts. Many out there think, us owners are socially inept, living in our parents basement, in our underwear eating Cheetos. I am on a mission to remove that stigma.
The only negatives I get are women making fashion comments. I consider myself pretty good on assembling her wardrobe, but some have opinions. For example, this recent shoot, I changed out her wig. Kinda wasn't feelin' it for her silver wig, then when a Chinese women made the comments saying why do have such beautiful doll wearing gray wig, makes her look old. This confirmed it, so I changed out. The only other time was when Ana was in a elegant dress and a woment made the comment of such a beautiful dress on a beautiful doll, but get better shoes on her. Both cases, they were right.
I see that you are new here, so welcome to the forum.
