Oddly enough, within a challenge that's got such similar ideas, this one stands out. I think it's the color and contrast against the background and done with basic editing rules that truly makes this a wonderful shot. Nice work.
Oh! I love this shot! :D I like how the colors pop right off my screen. What a creative idea, a teddy bear riding a horse! It certainly defines childhood! =] The only problem I see is the red stirrup which looks over saturated and is distracting. It takes away from the brown and rustic color theme. But good job! Your picture looks phenomenal! :]
