This is the front door from my dollhouse, painted with black dimensional paint, plus rolls of pink, purple, and silver holographic sticker paper. It's almost exactly what I was going for. The sparkles remind me of what I see when I rub my eyes. The dream is inside.

Fun, dreamy, colorful image! Nice work.

Nicely setup. It makes me want to come into your image and open that door :-)) The composition works well, as the small hallway leads you to the door. The colours are really dream-like. I don't like the black border as there is almost no black in the image itself so it overpowers it a bit.

I cannot wait to hear how this shot was achieved! I've looked and looked and looked trying to figure it out. It does represent a drug induced dream for me, not that I would know about those things, LOL. The colors are great, the reflections are wonderful and the door for escape is a nice way to draw you out of the picture while still keeping you hostage! :)

Cool effect. Don't know how you did it, but very cool. Monitor and mirror? 8

I don't care for the big bulky border with this shot, I think a smaller border would have worked better.

Like most dreams, this leaves a lot of room for interpretation. Also, like dreams, it leaves the question open as to what it is exactly. Interesting shot.

The use of light for this dream shot works very well:) I like what you have done here. the only thing that takes from this is the "gold knob on the door"? it is such a contrast to the wonderful prizms of color. 6

cool shot! Good colors...nice effect.

Very creative idea. I think as a "doorway" it should be open but that is just another idea.
