Thanks for the great comments everyone! :-) This was a fun challenge that was done on the last day on a whim...5.88...ehhh, but at least it's above my average...AND I learned how to make smoke in PS!!
Would a real rabbit have been better? If going for a bit more 'realism', yes. BUT, the stuffed animal rabbit is perfect when playing into the concepts of childhood, innocence and magic. It makes me think of childhood and being captivated and enchanted by watching a magician pull the rabbit or dove out of the hat. Hmmm, or mayhap there is another enchanting idea you are trying to convey. Where do loved stuffed animals go when no longer wanted or needed? Perhaps they travel down the 'rabbit hole' in the magic hat to a land akin to Alice in Wonderland where they become 'real'. The lighing is well done in the composition. The magic smoke and sparkles arise out of the hat to cement the idea that this hat is a door to an enchanted realm/home. Nicely done!
