Virgin Mary

My mother has this Virgin Mary figurine she bought at a swap meet in Valencia, California several years ago. When I was younger I thought it was one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen when they put in on top of our tree. Now it gets shoved in a corner and we forget to turn it on, it looks kind of shabby and dusty. I was trying to grasp that childlike perspective when I shot the roll.

Taken with a 50mm lens, 2500PK Super Promaster. Touched up in Mac iPhoto. Excuse the blurriness and poor quality, it was my first photo shoot.
