as I have said...

that was exactly my thought Hoppy (though, a little unconventional) I  
focussed on the teddy... to make her the center of attention and to

I was thinking to make this a little different ...

some like you have warmed to this...

but actually, to my surprise, a number of fine photographers  
questioned this, and felt it destroyed the image...
