Yuppers.....and I never throw them out. Each one speaks to me in it's own language with it's own personality and with it's own message. Strange the way my stuffed animals convey specific thoughts.........the oldest and "most" precious Steiff bear constantly promises to give me the strength to die.....my daughter's little Whitie bear is as innocent as can be imagined...(DON'T START MOMMA!!!!)...ok.....I will take a picture of the whole room.........filled with "stuffies"!

LOVE your bear....I hope he/she has friends....... :-O???

Looks to be a well used teddy bear. It looks so forlorn and I think the sepia tone gives it more of a melencholly feel.
The tone and vieneting deinitely make me feel that he was abandonded.

Jeez, I don't know about this. It's a creepy little bear but does convey a loneliness. Evocative.

Beautifully executed. Love the over/under exposure here (guess that's what you would call it?) Anyways... the little hole in the back, the angle shot, the lighting, the color... it all works perfectly! It's like the bear is longing for his old pal to come back to him. Great capture!
