The weather today was really bright and sunny, but it was sooooo windy and the wind was really chilly. However, it didn't stop us taking a detour up to the top of a cliff to take some photos of the view. It wasn't till I took the dolls out of the car to photograph them though, that I realised just how windy it was.....poor Fiona nearly lost her wig!!!! And my camera was jiggling all over the place being tugged by the wind! (That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it!;) )
The water looks really chilly...
Not many people on this little beach today!
Even Fiona looks cold, it's a good job she has on her nice warm hoodie.....
Sheltering from the wind, the perfect spot to catch her breath after the climb...
Where she is joined by Marisol who had opted to stay in the car whilst we went to the top of the cliff, as she'd insisted she'd not be cold without her cardigan!
Back at sea level again, most small towns have a place where locals can go and collect drinking water from communal taps. The water points are either natural stone with a trough or highly decorative Andalucian tiles like this one below! Of course the water that comes from the mains taps in our houses is completely clean and drinkable these days but some people still like to collect their drinking water from a local water point. Often the water comes from a natural spa so people prefer the taste.
Since she learned this 'sign' Marisol seems to want to do it in every photo I take nowadays ;)
Well we are already almost one full week into the New Year......and I have already taken two lots of dolly photos in public!!! Must be a record for me!
Wonderful photo's of the girls Sharon and yes twice in under a week.. maybe this will be the year of the public photo for you! :)The girls look so sweet , one like them will definitely have to go one my wish list.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful place to take a nice early morning stroll and finishing up with a nice lunch, perfect! Hugs :) xx
Thanks very much Dee and yes, can you believe it!!! Twice in one week I could be found photographing dolls in public! What is the world coming to? :)
DeleteIt would have been lovelier had it not been so windy, I really did think we could be blown right off the top!!

The girls are adorable, and they the setting is gorgeous. You have my respect for braving the elements (and risking that wind with them) to get the shots! I salute you!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much JS! I think I might have been a little bit crazy actually, especially as it was so high and there isn't a fence around it!

Fab pictures S! Those girls of yours are so cute! Next time can we have some chihuahua shots?
ReplyDeleteThanks Ronny and yes, I promise that I will take some of the Chichis really soon for you :)

Oh my Sharon, these are just gorgeous snaps of Fiona and Marisol, I love them all. I wish I could take dolly photos out doors, but I am limited to what I can do. Those tiles are beautiful too, but I think the fifth shot of Fiona and the second last shot of the two of them together are my very favourites.
ReplyDeleteBy the way I have just tagged you for an award.
Hugs,

Thank you Xanadu, I'm glad you like them! I like taking photos outdoors as it is normally where I get the best results, but I still struggle with people looking at me and thinking I'm weird...even if it is a bit true LOL!
DeleteI'm glad you enjoyed the photos.
And thank you for the award :)

Yay for records!! I've taken lots of pcitures lately too and that's so weird for me haha so congrats!
ReplyDeleteThe places you took the photos are marvellous and your girls are very pretty! I love the Ante sculpt so much, it's definitely my favorite tiny from FL~
I'm glad Xanadu tagged you in the award thing, or else I wouldn't have find your lovely blog :)
Thank you very much Alejandra, and thank you for visiting my blog, I hope you will visit again :)
DeleteI'm with you on the Ante sculpt, she is my favourite too, and secondly I love Pipi, as a girl...love that sculpt!

Just do some more records. I'll love to watch!
ReplyDeleteCute dolls and thank heaven they don't loose their wigs.
Hope YOu got a cardigan.
Btw. the andalusian tiles are really pretty and a nice background!
Don't worry Anne, I had a body warmer and even a scarf! I am such a wimp when the wind is cold!
DeleteThe tiles are nice aren't they, and quite cheap to buy here too!

I love going out for lunch with you and your dolls! ;) Such lovely scenery and sweet dolls, too.
ReplyDeleteAww thank you very much KK, I'm glad you enjoy the lunches ;)as well as the dolls!

Another group of beautiful photos by the sea. I love how you dressed your girks for the chilly weather. It is really nice to see the water fountain and the other local photos. You are getting very brave my friend and I love it! A great post! Sending you big hugs! :) XXX
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Ginger! The truth is that my dolls are here at the coast with me and most of their clothes are at home in Sevilla, so they really had to go out in what they were wearing. Marisol could really have done with her sweatshirt but she had to go without!
DeleteI'm glad you enjoyed it though :)
Big hugs back to you too!

Wonderful to see you 'out and about' again with your 'girls.' I did tell you that it gets easier with practice.
ReplyDeleteLove little Fiona's outfit and the way it shows off her poseability, especially on those rocks at the beginning and adore Marisol's pretty petite face and hair colour and style.
(Very taken with those canvas shoes. I have a few pairs for my Sasha girls.)
Thanks very much Kendal, it is inded getting a little bit easier....not easy yet, but getting there!
DeleteI'm glad you like the girls and their outfits. The shoes are great, I got them in all the colours that Mimiwoo had!!! It was such fun when the package arrived!
