Might have been better named for CS Lewis. This puts me in mind of a Narnia gone to ruin. Really nice.

Interesting subject. I think it could be enhanced by just being in BW but that may just me my opinion. Good shot!

Nice shot. However it doesn't seem surreal. At least to me.

Not quite and pure to the theme of the challenge and with the name I would have avoided the lamp post. However, the image of the dilapidated bridge is nice. 6

Not sure what is surreal about this shot. Colours are weak and could've used some toning in PS. Composition is interesting, but not for this challenge. Mist would've helped... 4
