I had asked at the start of this challenge if stuffed animals were considered dolls .....I was given several definitions and they all included something about a doll resembling a human.......I don't know if that caused you to be docked but they are cute......though the lighting is pretty poor. Good luck

Terminally cute. Love the lighting. 7

I love the photo and the shadows behind the dolls, but I wish their faces were not in the shadows

I don't like the lighting. Harsh lighting makes it look like you were trying to make the dolls look scary (which I don't think you were, based on the title). Winnie is also the only big one with light on his face.

Wee bit too much shadow over them, a different light source would've been better.

The shadows are really distracting. Also, you cant really see the minnies. In the future, make sure your background isnt wrinkled, or put your subject farther away from it, so you can see it as much!

Exposure seems a bit off

great colours but the focus seems a little off ... camera shake maybe. Try resting your camera on a table or chair and some books to get the correct height if you dont have a tripod

Fun and whimsical, but somehow the light and shadows just don't seem to work.

I like your grouping, but the light isn't fair the way some of these guys are getting stuck back in the shadows.

I'm sure these guys secretly come to life at night, but this time someone turned on the lights and they've been sprung.
