The bear is staying

The bear, that's the nick name me & partner gave the mayor, ever since we realised that he was the bear mascot during one of the carnivals back in March. Well, yesterday we had our local election and he has been re-elected as the mayor of our town. So, I guess will see more of the bear in future.

ps. pls excuse the fuzzy photo .

Avoir un ours comme maire c'est original.. Cela prouve que votre maire se sens bien, il ose. Bravo

"ps. excuse for the fuzzy photo "
No not at all! It's great photo! I like a lot!

Jazzy said...

your mayor is a winner, ours is good but this one is even happy to make a fun of himself - that's the spirit.

great photo =)

The important part of the photo is in focus. The rest is ART! Your mayor looks very cuddly and well fed. May he do a good job for you all.

I'd like to see the mayor with the bear's head on, too! Kris, you are so faithful about visiting blogs. Nice to see your avatar when I open a comment page. Incidentally, is it a monk's robe??

The guy in the bear suit is actually adorable - I'd vote for him, too! It's nice to see a politician who doesn't take himself too seriously.

hahahahahahahah.. gosh, is it that bad! if i remember correctly i was wearing long skirt, carrying my camera bag, hunching to take the shot .. :D

Jazzy,
its the matter of self conciousness. am sure most people would love to try it , probably your mayor's adviser was against it, possibily?

Ben,
just dont use the magnifying glass and thephoto will look fine :D

Thanks everyone for passing by :)

A mayor in a bear suit! Very interesting. Though I wonder what the electorate would think in other parts of the world, particularly from where I'm from.
Really liking the blur/colour seperation around the subject, blends in really well.

Kala said...

the bear seems like a good bloak - hopefully he is just as good a mayor as he is a bear =)

I was about to say too, that don't sorry at all, this little blur is fantastic! And the colours and the black-and-white... Wow! Fine shot!

And what a fun mayor you have!!

:D
