1st place
The place where stories and legends comes alive by Inkeri

rotcivski: Wow, what a great shot. The best entry so far.

Victor

casechaser: Congrats Erja!!

Nikoneer: In the basement working concourse of my office building, where all the offices are located, there is a bulletin board. Right now, as is often the case, a 22x36 inch piece of paper is out there and a "story" has been started. The idea is that as people walk by they write in each next sentence. It works best when there is an image to stimulate their creative juices. This photo of yours is that kind of image, with all the elements needed to create a story just by studying the image. Perhaps that would be a good thread? An interesting image like this one that visitors to the thread could leave a sentence or two and thereby collectively write a short story. And to think your photo started it. 8D

(btw - good luck in the contest)

2nd place
Night Dreams by coram9

purmusic: Great composition, Chris.

Lighting is well done.


Caveats?

Lighting is well done, save for that of the figure lying down and engaged with the one fairy. The area looks over-processed to my eyes.

And ... you need better models.

... ...

Might have been tempted to lose the one fairy that is rising up. Without, all other elements kind of triangulate and guide viewer's eyes to the 'real' girl.


Apologies for being harsh in the above. Perhaps, some creative retooling is in order?

4th place
Dragon at the Gate by Tootles

casechaser: Excellent contest entree.

danika: Wow, very imaginative work, Tootles. Would make a wonderful cover for a childrens fairy tale book. Love the colorful windows. Best wishes in the contest.

Akeraios: I don't know, I think he looks rather friendly actually. Just a bit bewildered at finding himself there. And that beady eye is probably just admiring the colored windows like me.

5th place
...in the Forest of Ever After... by lilu103

jeenie11: I love all the little details. You did some real looking to find everything.

robosys: Extremely impressive! I'm normally a fan of more simple images, but I made an exception here. The amount of work involved must have been staggering. Thanks a lot.
