Being at this scene, and actually trying to make this shot pretty was was very awkward, and it made me feel terrible. I had the idea of the stuffed animal right off the bat, but when I arrived at the house to scout the picture I never expected to find one there, or any of all the lost possesions. The feeling of regret was almost unbearable, I almost decided not to take the photo. This house has been here burnt down for over 2 years, and until this challenge it never occured to me the loss the family must have suffered.

Nice shot but Teddy is likely getting hammered in overall scoring. Good luck!

awww, that's sad. Cute though. I'm guessing this is in B&W, but it looks like it has a blue cast to it. Could just be me though.

This is a thinker of an image. It really made me pause and wonder about the story behind it. I vote 7.
