Interesting legend, I had to look that one up. As for the picture, it's ok. Certainly meets the challenge, but is a bit lacking. I find the background distracting, but it's hard to pinpoint anything else. Just doesn't capture my fancy. Wish I could be more helpful.
I'm not familiar with this superstition or urban legend, but as a photo it seems a little on the busy side. A shallower depth of field to blur the background would help some.
not sure of the superstition nor urban legend here but I find the feathery stuff on the bears left arm quite distracting. i do however really enjoy how the forground colors are muted while the background colors are more saturated. thats very cool.
