    As creative and awesome this pictures have been shot, some of them actually have a depressing feel to them. But brilliant photography without a doubt.

    Very emotional photography. I find the images of the abandoned dolls particularly moving, perhaps because they look so much like children. Wonderful work.

    That’s really awesome and creepy… which makes it even more awesome! The doll floating on water seems like a story on its own.

    the pics gives a sad feeling…vry creative n unusual..i would like to suggest sumthin.. you can try to convert few of the pics into b&w as b&w conveys emotion n according to me DJ bass & howzey could be converted in to monochrome..
