@Craig: :
(from Ronnie) Thanks, Craig. The backlighting was from a shielded flashlight behind the bear and an infill was played over him with a second light during a 4 sec exposure . . lucky he didn't move!

I think the bear on the left has gone into hibernation waiting for the end of the global financial crisis. The bear on the right is a bit more optimistic about the fact. :)

Charming Teddies. Where do you find your inspiration ?!? Great job. You should publish a book out of your chef d'oeuvres ;o)

@Kylie Greenan: :
(from Ronnie) . . hee hee . . thanx, Kylie ! This was a particularly fun image pairing to work on and I agree the golden bear does almost look ready to run for President !

You've found the right word : essential ! How many scary nights did we share with them... a nice tribute for me...

The one on the right reminds me of "Teddy" in Spielberg's "A.I."

Cool one Ronnie

I don't know how you two come up with so many amazing ideas, I love your sense of shared humor.

I gotta say: With the backlighting, the bear on the right is a bit creepy. But it's better than looking sad like his friend on the left.
It's impossible to refrain from anthropomorphizing teddy bears.
Well played.

must be fun shooting these, Ronnie, your bear looks like he's ready to to somewhere, the lighting certainly creates a mood

@lissa: :
(from Ronnie) Thanks, Lissa, yes, it is fun to work these images but it is a learning curve for us both, too. Each image pairing is a step into the unkown and the untried !
Barbara from Florida, United States
You two certainly are a pair of cute bears. I think the one on the left needs a hug. Love the lighting on the one standing. If he is running for President, that settles my woes, I vote for him!

Another excellent shot from you, two. (Glad that the bears were so kind as to cooperate!)

lilly's bear is a polar bear, hibernating and possibly endangered. ;) I like how Ronnie's got that light outlining his bear
