   Hello Ella,
   You have captured so much character in this teddy bear. I am going to guess that this might be a beloved object from your childhood. In the first two photos I get a strong sense of how much this bear has been loved. The lighting and black background allow the worn, fuzzy texture of this bear to really stand out and be the centre of attention. Meanwhile, the bottom two images draw me into the bear as though it has it’s own soul. I love the glint you have captured in it’s eyes! In the last image it appears as though the bear has come alive and is staring back into the camera lens at you. I notice you included a well worn pair of sneakers as well. Perhaps it would be interesting to explore more of your well-used belongings and photograph them in this same characterful way. You could also try grouping them together in a photo so the items appear “in conversation” or in context with one another. Nice work!
