Perhaps caused by some deep-seated feeling of insecurity, I have this strange urge these days, where I feel compelled to get lots of things that I like, and stick them altogether in a photo.

The dummy is one of @stef 's mannequins that he gave me back in June - and she's still seeing plenty of action! The camera is my old Pentax ME Super - or one of them - which has many happy memories for me too. The model is a classically trained dancer who lived just down the road. Even her shiny crocskin costume is one of my favourites - and one of a pair that have been in our costume boxes since the 1990's.
