This image just makes me feel good when I look at it! I love the lighting and the up close viewpoint that you have chosen. Also, the shallow DOF is very effective. Roberta

Oh, how sweet! This is a beautiful portrait of a much loved teddy bear. He wears his age very well :-). Lisafx

Hewy, this is absolutely wonderful. Perfect sharpness and color from a photographic mastery perspective and wonderful subject and expression from an emotional point of view. I love it. Ann C
