I can see why they gave you the scores that they did. You weren't direct enough for them. However, this shot is fantastic. The processing is great. You really captured the essence of a fair. Great job.

What a wonderful image!! I'd love to know how you processed it, by the way. I love the feel of it.

I love the processing you did on this image. It has such a nostalgic feel. Too bad, it seems many voters didn't read the details of the challenge, and didn't accept your figurative wings. I have no suggestions for you. I love the composition (even the vast open space in the foreground), and the color and subject. The children's concentration on the balloons is charming.

Sorry, but I just don't get this. It looks like an interesting shot, there's a real story being told here. However, I don't get the 'runway' reference at all, and can't see how it ties in to this challenge.

excellent job with the processing - love the story here - the flags almost seem like wings

I like that it looks like the cotton candy lady is watching them. Not a very busy fair! And now I want a lemon tree too lol.

I think this is really reaching for the wings theme

Love the picture and like the way you made it work with the challenge however, yellows seem over saturated and if that is my monitor I am sorry.

nice concept and interpretation. One among the very few entries of figurative 'wings'.

The burning/dodging around the subjects and balloons is a bit too much for me.

I really like the shot but I'm having a hard time seeing the fit in the Wings challenge.

I like the editing you did on this, I'm not really following the wing theme. I'm guessing this carnival is in a small airport possibly or you were referencing to the balloons. Either way I like the shot.

This photo has real possibilities because in the interesting setting, people, and colors. I think you would benefit from a closer crop that shows less ground and a little less of the cotton candy stand in order to make the people and their balloons more the center of the eye's focus, yet to maintain the color contrasts.

Nice shot. I'm not sure it meets the challange though.

Great HDR feel to it. I love the colors and almost 3-d effect, but trying really hard to get the wings sense of it.
