Takes on A Toy (January Challenge)

[sirch]

Happy new year!

This month's challenge is Takes on a Toy so post your toy shots here. Quite well timed really because we can include those "toys" we might have been lucky enough to get for Christmas.

Usual rules, i.e. there aren't any. You can post as many as you want and make constructive comments about what others post. ENJOY. Check out other "Takes on ..." threads in ideas and inspiration.

Takes on a Mammal (November challenge)
Takes on a Candle (December challenge)

There is a discussion thread >>>here<<< for chat and questions etc.

Roy I do like how the main focus is on the toy electric battery car with the wire just out of focus

I like your shot Susie, showing the toy rabbit, headphones and mobile, a good clear shot

The frog is real susie, he/she ? ' visited ' our patio and I persuaded it to pose on my toy car. It was then returned to nature unarmed but I have a sneaking suspicion it knew it was now a star.
