You know what to do. This is the "Imaging Helpline"... so C&C are welcomed.

What exactly bothers you Dr. Harout?

The colours look fine to me; no over-saturation of the red hence no detail loss; the blue and the other colours appear to be very natural.
Not too sharp but definitely good details; the fibres are visible.

The only thing that comes to my mind is that, this photo could use some shallow DoF that could bring one of the dolls forth with some isolation from the background. That's a choice though.

Exactly what I had in mind. Thanks Yildiz.
One of the main reasons I would like to go FF is the shallower depth of field with a given lens.
That shot was full open at f/5.6 with SAL16105. I'm thinking of defecting that lens and opting for a Tamron 17-50/2.8, or even acquiring the new SAL30M28-DT

Well it's a nice shot anyway. I think though if you've really taken up knitting you might want everything in focus

Hi Doc - perhaps you could have changed your, or the doll's, position so that one of the dolls (the red one?) was "looking" in to the camera? I like the sad ( ) doll with wild hair. What is the story behind their costume and the things they are holding?

The "woman in red" has a cross in her hand, as for the guy, a necklace.
You're right about the angle of shoot. Next time I'll keep that in mind. Thanks.
