Lovely colours and a very nice staged shot. Good sharpness and the butterfly and 'magic dust' are very nice touches

All Eyes on Prince Charming

Comment:
Context wise meets the challenge well. Unfortunate about the level of noise and the reflection of light in the eyes. Possibly could have done with a closer crop to exclude the boy in the check shirt

Once Upon a Time

Just stays on the right side of the line between digital photography and digital art (imo). Some great PP here and I like the slightly dark feeling about the shot

Hansel and Gretel's First Journey Home, before the whole breadcrumb and oven debacle...

What a clever idea and I love the sharpness and focus on the signle stone. The blurred light in the distance works well although possibly I would have preferred to see a couple of other bokeh stones further down the pathway rather than immediately behind the stone

Nice B&W conversion

Snow White and the Apple

Meets the challenge well. Nice composition although it seems a tad dark to me and could possibly have done with a colour boost

Nice shot though

very very clever take on the challenge. Excellent concept, superb lighting and the blue hue works fantastically 8 from me

Brewery of eggshells

Hmmmm I am not quite sure how this warps up with Fairy Tales, but I think that probably reflects my ignorance of the subjecy rather than the shot. I love the colour and sharpness of the egg....what is going on inside it looks horrible though (from a personal opinion not a photograhic one) nice composition

Day 7 Victrola

Phew Diane, I thought for a while that you were going to leave us hanging on 6 shots

Nice duotone, which suits the subject very well. Very good job getting the needle arm dissecting a rule of thirds point. There is a gentle softness to the shot which also suits the subject matter.

I guess my sour comment would be the light in the top left hand corner is a bit blown out and a little distracting

Thanks for playing with us!

Toad

Super high contrast on a slightly over exposed background, really makes this picture eyecatching. the border and the blurring of the foreground and background work very very well. I also like the fact that the pov means that this toad could almost appear to be a lizard. Great sharpness and focus as well (and as ever with your shots)

Struggling a lot to come up with even the smallest thing I dont like about this picture, possibly the bluring in the foreground could be a touch more feathered, but to be honest in order to find that comment I had to really look at the shot with the most negative of hats on and with the sole intention of finding something to 'complain' about
