 Okay, my first challenge, here goes...

I looked around the house for some objects that meant something to me and arranged them on a desk by the window, so I had natural lighting. This was my favourite picture, the wooden horse was a gift from a friend from Sweden.

As for post processing I did some adjustment layers, some light and contrast to give it a slightly dreamy look. Then I cropped and added a border.

One of the better toy themes, in my book.

Not sure where the focus is here. The colours are nice but the overall effect is a bit blurry.
