Comment by JPR:
So much going on here that I enjoy. First, the composition with the ring of rocks in the front and tree sprouting from the middle with the shadows perfectly sprouting towards me. Second, the story, or fantasy, if you will, a somewhat vague connection between girl in white dress, flowers, and spotted dog, etc. Third, the magical processing done to give it that special feeling. There are a few spots where I feel the blur could have been accomplished better but I understand the difficulties of such a thing. Overall, one of the top shots in the challenge for sure. Is this a tribute challenge outtake for Rodney Smith?

Seems a little too distant. A tighter crop on the girl and dog would have been nice...it would also be better for her to be out of the center of the shot.

Nicely done. Looks like some real thought and work was done in prepping the picture. The PS work around the bushes and trees looks a little contrived, but no points off for that, I definitely see the Fantasy in Fantasia. Great job!

Neat! Looks like a LOT of editing/blurring, the result is nicely fantastical.

good idea, but you should have taken the shot from closer up i think.

Good display and nice arrangement of the food and chopsticks in the image. Looks like a bit of jaggies on reflection off the lower right rim of the holder but otherwise there are no digital effect visible at all. Well done image.

I think you could use a little bit more light on the vegetables, but that is just my opinion. this is a nice photo and nice setup
