On The Rocks?

Comment:
First Impression: Nice colours on the glass. A bit too much on the highlights on the top of the glass pebbles. The top pebble should not have to touch the frame.
Was I fooled? Yes!

You know that tingling feeling you sometimes get reading a scary book...

First Impression: I think there is too much light for the intended mood. Also, the boy's legs seem disproportionally long because of the closeness and wider angle. The cabling is a bit distracting too.
Was I fooled? Yes of course! We all know children don't read anymore!! Oh the masked guy!

Comment:
First Impression: Cool! Pretty colours!
Was I fooled? I do not see the illusion here. The image does not really explain it. Still, me missing it doesn't make it a bad image and I will give you the benefit of the doubt.

First Impression: Subject is a bit small in the big picture.
Was I fooled? I'm not sure. I see him levitated above the chair, but what is a guy doing sitting in a chair in the trees in the first place?

First Impression: This feels like fun! The model's smile is addictive!
Was I fooled? Almost. A less informative background would have helped.

First Impression: Very nice ! Feels nice!
Was I fooled? Close! The dof on the wing, and that nosewheel damaged it. Still very nice and completely in the spirit of the challenge!

First Impression: This is a nice concept, that could have been carried well (and was if I remember correctly).
Was I fooled? No, but that is not really the issue here. What damages it here in scoring is the image quality.
Good Luck.

The Masks

First Impression: Wow those eyes are green! I think the bottom right mask could have carried the image by itself.
Was I fooled? Nice deep black background, Yes!

Where Does Reality End?

First Impression: Well, I don't see the story. I see many loose peices, nicely spaced and placed, but I don't see the story.
Was I fooled? I think what might have helped is preperation. Clean mirror, no clues, such as the bottom left and upper right corner black cloth. To really fool people, try this again, but flip the image vertically. Your mind will tell you youre looking at a reflection, but it will be fooled, because the reflection is upside down.

First Impression: Hahahaha! Some saturation might help, as well as some more midtown contrast.
Was I fooled? Great Idea. The um, sourcew of the water is a bit heigh up to be completely accurate, but very nice!
