Death of a Doll

WHEN: March 2010
WHERE: Bloomfield, Pittsburgh
PHOTO: Chris P. In Pittsburgh
Chris reports: "When I first walked past, the doll was laying face down, as in the first photo. What may not be clear is that the doll is headless. When I walked past later, the doll had been moved onto its back, and the new perspective revealed the bondage angle of the doll's hands tied together. One can only imagine the events that led to this poor doll's demise."

I Am a Sad Toy

I had some computer issues that finally resolved themselves in a hard-drive death. Hence, the lack of posts recently. But, I'm back up a new horse, and moving forward.
Not sure how many stored photos I had on that dead hard drive (or where I backed them up), so if you've been thinking about sending in your own photos, now is a great time!
