Congratulations on your red with this illusion. Simple but effective and the subjects add that special charm. Good pair of hams. |

returning for comments:
A very good illusion but the top jumper needs the elbow extended. Outside of this minor detail, the image is simple and stunning. A great effect. 7 |

This has great elements and the potential to be a winner. However, the light is very flat, and the crop is too tight on the right. That may have been necessary per the "trick" but it does take away a bit. I am presuming this is a fake setup and is rotated 90 degrees, but I guess it's plausable that the lighter kid could be "lifted" by the wind and the umbrella. Oddly, the tilt of the plant perhaps looks the most fake part of the scene. Stiill, good work! |

GREAT PHOTO. You have captured both THE THEME, CAPTURED MY ATTENTION AND ADDED A HUMOROUS ELEMENT. I love the use of the weight to show the effect of the "wind". |

This has to be the most outrageous entry I've seen in a while. These kids defy gravity! Well maybe not but kudos for outstanding creativity. I'll be tuning in later to hear your story behind this quirky photograph.
Revisiting. This is just too wild. Easily one of my top three picks. 9 |

Only one slight nitpick with this shot, which is that the kid's left arm should have been straight / taut. That would have made the illusion more effective. Actually, one other small nitpick, which is the light-colored object right above the boy's feet on the extreme right edge. Other than that, it's an amazing shot and I've no idea how you did it! |

You really understand how to create a perfect illusion. I like how many funny elements like the heavy block or the umbrella you brought in. The only thing that doesn't add to the effect is the skateboard. |

Very well done, the plant is a nice touch. As is the strap on the umbrella. Were you using a fan in addition to wires?
But, why is he skateboarding with an upbrella and a 1kg weight? And why hasn't the skateboard already rolled away? |
