Awww what a sweet story to go with a wonderful photo. Love the idea of mixing B/W and color. Great focus, composition and processing. Something to treasure always. Great job.

Wow! Sorry it wasn't better received. For an expert editing challenge, I think it's very creative and artistic. I wouldn't have expected it to score in the 4's :(

This is an interesting effect and I remember looking at it long and hard during FS voting - and then not voting, as I couldn't make up my mind about it. I think what maybe detracts is that the magic stick doesn't look quite real, due to the painted effect. I'm also not sure about the light line bisecting the top area of the photo, as it maybe detracts from the inherent mystery of the two little boys on the path. However, I do find this captivating and it made me look several times.
