1st Place
art-mely with "Wonderland"
I love the soft glow of the atmosphere in this and I adore how the eye is drawn from one piece to the next. All in all, great technique and composition and therefore my first choice

2nd Place
shadeley with "The Last of the Wilds"
I love the abstract flames together with the photorealism of the scene. You can basically see the magic pouring out from the girl. It's a reduced colour palette, but it's not completely monochromatic - well done!

3rd Place
Aramisdream with "The Guardians"
It's no secret I love glowing things, but this image stood out to me not only because of the warm glow, but also the artist has managed to create a scene so cute and well-lit that I couldn't pass it up. Plus I love how the wings actually fit to the animals so naturally.
