Beautiful, apt and so charmingly done. - Didn't realize this was yours when I breezed through all the entries: this was a really tough but great challenge, I wouldn't have thunk it, and wish I had time to comment on all of them, I am so impressed. T

Very cute and a great title! Are these actually puppets and do you actually use them - they're very beautifully made!

Clever title, nice shot. I would have prefered a different background, as puppets, the "natural" background seemed out of place to me.

This is a really beautiful choice of subject, and the poses are great. I think the idea of putting these puppets in a natural setting is very creative, but I think in this case the textures and colors distract from the main subjects. I think this could have benefited from a simpler background or a shorter depth of field to keep focus on the puppets.
