Mannequins

That was in a gallery space we had for a FotoFest exhibition. The shower was in the back of this old rundown store front space so we dressed a manniquiin up for the occasion. It was a hoot!

I had no idea there was a thread for Mannequins. I have some, somewhere. Shots, that is, not mannequins.

@ Don... I roared laughing when I saw yours in the shower!
 
Damn, I love this thread. It's nice to discover that someone else - several someone else's - share my unhealthy obsession with photographing mannequins (which I'm afraid dates back not years but decades. There are truly some remarkable images in here, worth not merely appreciating....but coming back to, and studying.

And special thanks to pictor for starting the thread, way back when....
 
a few Mannequins

A few of my own Mannequin shots, starting with the most recent - taken in a tiny used bookstore in a small town in Oregon -
