My Planetdoll Mini Tara recently left me, too. She was so cute, so poseable, had a lot of personality and was easy to carry around, but I admit that I generally prefer the SD - SD17 size.

As I really need to reduce the amount of dolls I own, tough decisions have to be made. I finally gave in and decided to sell my beloved Miho as well. He will be moving to Berlin fairly soon. I hope he's going to find a home where he will be taken more care of there.

Did I mention that I'm horribly impatient ;)? I'm really pleasantly surprised with it though as it's absolutely enough for taking nice photos and doing little experiments and in case I'll find out that I use them fairly enough I can still upgrade to the €€€ version later. Yet I can tell you, it's scary. With a lens like that you suddenly start to see the world through new eyes. In this case the face-ups of my dolls. You will notice the tiniest scratches in the face-ups of your doll that you haven't noticed before O.O Be warned! ;D Mein neuestes Spielzeug ist ein Makrolinsen Set, dass ich im Angebot für gerade mal EUR 30,- gekauft habe. Zu dem Preis hatte ich mir von ...

...and that for almost two weeks and he hasn't sold out yet? I'm confused! *.* I was really close to ordering a second one, but I really don't need twins. Spreading more Io love

So I'm back from my holiday journey it was lovely, yet too short of course. Holidays are always way too short ;). I took little Tara with me hoping to take some nice pictures of her on my trip, but well, as usually I almost forgot about that until the very last day.
