I'm not surprised stuff like this happens . I was checking out smartphone cameras and was taking pictures of a Cure Hellbox toy I brought with me ... I got some strange looks . Also, picked up a package at local post office recently & it was clearly labeled "vinyl doll". The female clerk gave me a raised eyebrow + disapproving stare ... :oops:

I absolutely LOVE photographing my toys, but I can't stand when people stop and stare. If someone's genuinely curious I don't mind striking up the conversation. But I'm generally approached with disdaining confusion and disapproving stares. Makes it hard to concentrate and enjoy it.

Thank you, Rei! This one was a challenge with lighting, manual settings and the tripod, but well worth it. It's also in the middle of college bar town, so I had to go at 3:00 a.m. to avoid the crowds! :lol:

Well done! The work is worth it when a shot comes out this good.

Thanks, Rei! I like that gopher toy a lot! So much personality and definitely a happy, fun expression! The table he's placed on looks like a sidewalk or tiled trail in a park!

Another page full of wonderful shots. David, your 'Arby's' exposition is really nice, and I love the continuining adventure of the M1 minis with the chickens and especially in the shoot 'em up arcade.

Great pic too Rei. I can't quite tell from his expression if he is just waking up to the light after dozing off some time in the night at the table, or is happily coming to rest after a weary journey. Maybe both. :)

Just a bit of background on the settings for these photos. These were taken in the San Carlos Hotel in Downtown Phoenix, aka The Heart of Phoenix. At one point, it was rated and even hailed as one of the most haunted places in the country. Not sure where it stands now as far as the country, but it still holds top 10 in Arizona. These particular shots were taken in what's called the Ghost Lounge. I was permitted by staff to take these around midnight last night.
