Default cabbage patch

In New Orleans, the streets are still littered with piles of rubbish, and personal belongings from people who lost their homes. This is from a doll collection dumped carelessly on the side of the road. Amoungst the crushed ceramic doll heads, minature clothing and tiny shoes, there lay a cabbage patch doll. Sadly remindiing me of the one I had when I was a child, some more of the remanents from Katrina, shot with M6 and noctilux.
Thanks for looking.......

Thanks for getting involved into it; I very much appreciate it.

Some comments:- Your picture alone does not link to the disaster in particular and thus it can not tell a story. Your captions, however, fill the gap. Thanks for posting. :-)

Stephanie,

a good shot; the doll almost seems to be crying.

Thank you for your comments, I also felt the image needed some explanation, otherwise it would look like I was dumpster diving or the like............

Stephanie -

A most touching and sensitive shot, well composed, and perfect selective focus. I suspect that this is not very near your home (North, South or Stewart Island?).
