A beautiful subtle statement.

Good, though a little too dark, and I'm viewing it on a fairly new and calibrated monitor right now.

A huge part of the problem here is that too much JPEG compression is killing the details. Your file size is only 22k, and you could have used up to 150k in this challenge. Always used the lowest level of compression (resulting in the largest file and greatest detail) that will sneak in under the limit for a challenge.

I really like this photo but I wish it were a bit lighter to see more of the rocking horse.

Oh wow, absolutely brilliant find I don't think rocking horses are made of wood anymore? I think they have tried to make it fancier these days, the lighting is so moody, the sepia tones suits this perfectly very nolstagic! Well done10

Wonderfully nostalgic, lite the Velveteen Rabbit or a trip to your grandmothers attic. This speaks volumes!

The smoke is actually a flashlight in a cone shape and shone at the camera. LOL, The depth of field, at that point, I didnt have the remote for teh camera and only had 20 seconds to do it in.

What do you mean about the noise???
