Thank you, RK, Jano, Sue, TheFly, CJ, Armin, and Paul for your kind comments. :) It’s always nice to hear positive and encouraging words.

Rod and TheFly,
Thank you for your comments. I considered setting something up in a more natural surrounding like a living room but I thought the objects in the background would take away from the photo. I was going for a clean look so the game and the bears would stand out more. To my eye any background objects would add too many unwanted distractions.

I like the set up as well Larson! I do wish the background and foreground was more even in the colorization - perhaps a little dodge or burn would fix that...but that's just me - perhaps it even adds to the pic. I can't decide... i like it. Great creativity! jano

This is a GREAT teddy bear shot and set up ! Now all you need is some honey for their snack ;) (But the bear lying down seems to have no money)

I was thinking something like this:

Looks great like it is. Keep up the good work.

This would make a really cute greeting card! All it needs is a nice big border and a sig ;-) CJ

Unbelievable Lee, put the bears in a more natural surrounding:-) Yeah the kids toy box not in a picy:-) Sorry Larson but I can't see the point mate.

I like this one. It's not the kind of photo i'd normally like as i'm a miserable bugger but i find your positioning of the stuffed bears very good and have used their glued on expressions to great effect. The one on the right has clearly lost all his money and has just landed on Park Lane with 4 hotels. Or whatever road it is if its the Yank version.

Looks like the poor little guy on the right just lost all his money and he looks very sad - I know just how he feels! :-( Cute shot! Nice composition and lighting :-) CJ

great idea. I think it could benefit by putting the bears in a more natural surrounding. Maybe on the carpet in the living room and not a stark white studio look. Just a thought.
