Lost in Translation

Black & White Sunday: Personality

What follows is a black & white rendition of my portrait photo of Jane Eyre doll. Jane Eyre is the main character in Bronte’s novel by the same name and quite a personality. You can see earlier posts dedicated to her here and here.

I look forward to seeing your choice of personalities for this Sunday. Remember, you are allowed to step outside the theme and post any other subject in B&W.

    I had confused the themes a bit and had photographed something that was meant for Thursday. I decided to post it for today anyway 🙂

Lovely portrait – she looks very pensive.

In her eyes I can see great sadness and thoughtfulness. Far more sense of personality than you’d expect in a doll.

Quite a personality indeed, Paula – that shines through every little detail. I like the way the light adds softness and a bit of sadness to her character. Knowing the novel, I must say – you are spot on with her name. And with the photo, of course.
Here’s a personality I noticed once upon a time: https://esengasvoice.wordpress.com/2015/02/01/black-white-sunday-personality-the-old-man-and-the-sea/
PS: I keep enjoying your choice of music…

  😀 Thank you, Ese. When I bought her she was already named after Jane Eyre (she is part of literary characters collection). None of my other 14 dolls has such an expressive face.

  P.S. Now that I have reread your comment, I figured out that the old man from your photo is a stranger, and that makes your capture even more fabulous. Thank you. 🙂

A lovely doll that has observed much, but kept her own council, Paula. That’s a rather disturbing thought now that I’ve written it down.

Paula – the doll went so well with the song and with a Sunday feel. and the mood you created with that doll – I am still chewing on it – 🙂
and for my “arranged” entry – well I have actually had a lot of fun thinking about it yesterday – such a good word choice. Still deciding – but did find this to share (just for fun) in the meantime….
