I know i will be nailed here because people won't see how this fits to the challenge. It does, but it's not as clear maybe. I always loved superman as a kid and my dream was to be able to fly like he does. So that's how it kinda fits in. Plus, he is a fictional character. Fantasy need not only be "lord of the Rings". Bottom line is that really...i just wanted to take this shot. This photo is also a kind of tribute to Alex Ross who is a comic artist. This shot was inspired by one of his drawings. You can google him and find his artwrok everywhere. If i knew how to make links, i would...but i don'y. Sorry. Hope you guys like the photograph. AlexRoss

Congratulations on your splendid finish in the Fantasy Challenge. Since you scored so well, it would be redundant of me to dwell on your image and tell you the same things your many commentors already have.
So, I will move on to the next image in the queue, but not before telling you that since you are learning at warp speed, (from 5.2 to 7.2 in 5 Challenges) why not think about coming on board the Critique Club! Your expertise would be welcome.
congrats on top 10, the photo is really cool!! mike has a perfect facial expression on it too which really adds alot. good job good luck for further challenges!
Hehe, I knew I was bound to see some of these. This is just really great! The composition, the lighting, contrast, sharpness/focus...all perfect! I can find nothing wrong.
Amazing sharpness. So far this looks to be one of the more technically sound pictures. There isn't much grain, and everything in it works. Good Job. and plus, who wouldn't want to be Superman?
Look... at the top of the page... it's a bird, it's a plane... it's a ribbon! So well composed and technically flawless. Super job! I give it a 9.5 only because you forgot the signature curl in the forehead. Thanks to rounding though, you still get a 10. ;-)
Very nice use of negative spaces, I love the composition. The whole implementation is like exposing the dreams, revealing something under the cover of our souls. Exposition is also excellent, and I also like the little bit nervous face. Good luck in this challenge, one of my favourites!
Totally black picture is no picture because black is not a picture subject, picture is to tell a story, but black is good as a shadow in picture not more than 3-20% of picture for me if it goes over 50% it is not a picture in my mind, but portrait and idea is really good so you get 3 points
p.s. This black background is getting really boring here on this sight
