Can you believe you received four 1s? What were they thinking...it must have been the model that turned them off! Maybe the cat hair on my dress was visible?

Very nice and charming . The clothing and the hands in the air give a sense of suspension. Personally I would have included the left side of the carpet because the strong top lighting would have aided the illusion of floating. |

Great concept! The illusion works well here and the composition is good! I might have made the background more 'lofty' (sky and clouds...) though? But good set up and extra points for originality! |

One of the most original I've seen so far! To bad ya couldn't have the whole leading edge of the carpet showing. I'd like to see the set up as I did something similar though much weaker for the Movie Title challenge!

Good illusion or trick photography. I like the colours and contrast but the model looks a bit uncomfortable or staged. |

this is definitely one of the more effective illusions. the model looks just the part, and the outfit is great! I like the exposure, too - good lighting and detail on the subject with a darker but still visually interesting background. this one's in my top 5. |

what a fun shot, I bet you had a blast setting this up. I would like to see a little more detail in the background to make this shot zing.. |

I think that it would have been more effective with sky as the backdrop. |

now where did you fine a genie to use in a challenge? I would have liked to have seen more of the carpet and background - zoomed out a bit is i guess what i am trying to say (thought that may have ruined the illusion??) |

I like this... cropping to show more of the carpet would help bump it up a couple of notches |

Nice idea but it would have been better to see more space under the carpet |

Aladdin's Magic carpet. Very well setup! |

This is a great, interesting, and unique shot. I just wish the background was a little less clear, perhaps more of a blur, and the colors were more bold and bright. The carpet needs some reds! :) |

The illusion is strong. I am not a fan of the pose, however. I also find the highlights on the left distracting. 5 |

Very cool idea and you captured a good expression. The execution is a tad off though IMHO - I have a little trouble seeing the carpet as flying. BUT, still a great shot. |

cool idea, i think i better background could have made this shot a lot more. |

First Impression: Strong composition, but the up the nose angle hurts it a bit. The model being more colourfull than the carpet feels a bit wrong too.
Was I fooled? I love the idea. 2 things trip it up imho. The busy static tree background (maybe som e motion blur?) and the bottom corner of the carpet being missing.
Still nice idea though. |

Nice illusion. Your model is great and believable. If possible, I think a sky background would have been more fitting. |
