'7' - Like this, good concept, not quite sure how you could have pulled it off better, but keep at it and I am sure you will get a great 'illusion' shot.
What a wonderful idea and such an original one at that...I bet that at the next illusion challenge, someone will try this take! I think the composition works well and the blury background helps but IMHO, the right side with the fence takes away from the magic...I think it might have worked better if the entire background was the leaves or maybe even sky or a neutral backdrop...But congrats on your photo! well done
I've been through all the entries 3 times now, and even though I'm not too keen on your background, this is my favourite of all of them! I really hope you do well.
Compositionally this is well thought out, The only concern I have is that the lighting should be more even, to avoid the obvious shadows and contrasts. As this is outside, try waiting for some cloud cover, or tring to diffuse the light with a sheet
These are the types of shots that I like to comment on the most. The ones where I see the most potential! This shot is very original! I really hope ya show the set up behind (or should I say above) it! unfortunately you picked maybe the worst time of day to shoot it. Your lighting is kinda harsh and coming from the angle that it is it doesn't pull out the textural details in the flowers as they are arranged. I'm also put off by most of the feet being in shadow. Depending on the orientation here, If shot early in the morning or later at night this could be a top ten shot!

Oh and could ya move around a little so that the background was move even? The dark fence top right kinda draws your eye away from the subject...
Fun and creative! However, the picture in general is a bit washed out. A bit of levels or curves adjustments (in PS if you have it) would help correct it.
A very clever entry. More interest would have been raised if the tip of a single flower used would have been isolated, such as the flower on the left. I still like it!
First Impression: Dang that background hurts it. Light is a bit harsh too, But this is such a beautifull image except for that background.
Was I fooled? Yes. I can work out the mechanics, but still very good illusion.
Please try this shot again with more 'magic' in the lighting if (you want) Also with the balancing act on the highest flower maybe.
Nice one.
Very good illusion. It shows great creativity. Nicely done. I'm just not too crazy about the uneven lighting in the picture. Background is just a tad harsh while the foreground is in shadow. 8
