 Just down the road from us, we have a little park that the council has turned into an Alice in Wonderland world. There's a little madhatter's tea party area and that strange forest area, and of course the white rabbit's door. My 4-yr old was thoroughly frustrated by the fact she could not prise the door open no matter how hard she tried which was perfect for the shot. Her yanking her little heart out on that door was ideal.

Great angle and colors! The rabbit figure removes a lot of the fantasy for me though.. 8

I really like this, and it would have been just as appealing without the rabbit. Great color, highlights and composition. The door blends so well. Good luck.

beautiful, soaring, dizzying composition. I was so disappointed to see a Disney cartoon character when I opened the thumbnail. I was hoping you'd created your own Wonderland. Still, you get a high score for finding the wonder in that spirtually bankrupt franchise.

It's a good idea, and you did a fabulous job with the photo, but something about it just doesn't QUITE work for me. The cutout maybe?
