 I borrowed a teddy bear and took it to the Art Gallery, where I knew these hoops were. I'm not sure if they're meant to be a sculpture or a traffic barrier.
I usd my long zoom lens - I've been having fun with it lately, but I've never really used it much.
Yeah, I know, toys don't generally do so well - but there was no one around to ask to put their mug in one of the hoops.

Great job keeping bear in focus. Too many entries have the frame in focus and the subject blurred! Also, great job getting the colors and lighting just right.

Very nice, but I think the background is a little distracting, especially, the top right corner thats dark green.
