Gandalf, riding a tree and chasing a white bearded hobbit thru the forest - cool! :D

Does look a bit like a wizard with a white beard. Though in reality it's probably a tree root. Kind of cool how you found that in such a blur.

A small update: I've revisited this photograph several times. I just didn't want to give up. Suddenly, it hit me: I finally saw the wizard hat :) There are still things to figure out. Maybe you'll see me stop by a few times more ;)
I hope that, after the challenge, you'll show us what we were actually looking at. That at least we deserve for all this effort *8*

Cool abstract, but that hat's pretty hard to make out.

Magical, clearly a medieval wizard, complete with gestures and all the required sorcererly props - including the iconic star on the hat. The spell is powerful. My favorite of this challenge.

Good picture with a cool abstract and feathery quality. Really needs more obvious headgear to not be DNMC.
