this is the ONLY image i have ever submitted on which i have not received any negative feedback :) .. happy me lol....
and for those who could not relate to the title, id have a brief -
when we are young, we are extremely playful, our whole existence is a play, keys becomes toys, and every tiny thing just becomes so much more playful... but as we grow older, and we learn about life, we lose that playfulness in ourselves, keys do nothing more than open doors.. so the balloons are symbolic to our childhood pleasures and "handicap" as we are no longer capable of getting any joy from them... lol i hope this makes sense ;) ..
thanks to everyone who voted!
This is the type of photography that inspired me to take it up - your explanation makes perfect sense to me. Very nice.

Someone is going to have to explain the title to me. If there is a joke in there, I don't get it (And feeling stoopid for not).
A nice shot. Meets the challenge very well, and it was obviously a nicely thought out idea. I might be missing something from the title and so a 9 is what I'm giving. There's just something I'm not getting.
Remarks: the central composition invites the devil into the symmetry, doesn't it? Wonderful surreality, tastefully subdued tones and backdrop. My favourite entry in this challenge.
I love this idea, fabulous!!! At 1st I was thinking maybe having drawn different facial expressions on the balloons because her face is completly hidden, but the more I look at it, the more amazing it is, as it is
