This is a beautiful subject for this challenge. It might be better with a little more light in the dark areas and if you got rid of that dark line down the left side, but I like the scenery you were able to capture here.

I think this photo could have had more impact in B/W to better use the contrast differences. Also, this appears to be somewhat oversharpened, especially wen looking at the leaves.

I think this would have looked nicer without the heavy green tones - maybe even in black and white or toned to a sepia. It feels a tad neon with the green highlights overpowering the sunshine that's breaking through the trees; some curves and a touch of sharpening would also improve the appeal. With those minor changes, though, this would be a fantastic photo. The scenery is well framed and it has a very balanced feel about it.

Love the idea, but the picture could be taken better.

I just didn't think this was very well taken or imaginative.

I would have liked the mushroom to be focused

this isn't a bad picture, but it really could be more on-topic. it aslo looks very "smart-blurred." that's a filter to use in extreme moderation most of the time.

Comment by vadvirag:
DOF and composition is excellent, but I doesn't feel much soul in this shot, due to the rigid plastic toy. She doesn't really look like Alice for me, I would imagine her as a pink faced blond girl with wonderful a dress. This could be a top shot with a blond little girl! :-) Now I am really in trouble with voting... :-(
