Nice job Tom, I love the softness of the shot it helps convey the dream like feel of the image.

I just love the dreamy feeling of this one. Really captures the mood of the challenge. A little dark for my taste though but well worth a 9. Great job.

The soft focus adds to the dream feel ... and the grown man walking down the road in his PJ's is unexpected. Extra points for creativity!

Love the idea. Nice road! Id like to see a bit more light on your subject though, he is almost lost in the image. Good luck! :)

I think maybe this would've done better to have been cropped to get the elongated rectangle.... The black borders are kind of harsh and don't go well with the softness of the picture (to me, at least). Just an idea, though. :) Other than that, I'm really liking this picture!

Appropriately dreamy feel to this. Love the contrast between the big guy and his soft pillow. Horizon feels a little tilted but I guess that's OK in a dream.
