This is a wonderful image.... the tones, the composition... unusual in that all the figures are turned away from the figure looking out to the left. Fascinating to me to look at.... I am however having a very hard time seeing this as a surrealistic image....as it is. I'm wondering if some sort of manipulation as in adding some other things to the composition may make it more in line with the challenge. Using as an example Misha883's image of a giraffe in the water on a beach.....Not sure how your photoshopping skills are? Just an idea.... And please do not take this as a criticism of the image...I do love it, but as I said, I think I need convincing. :~)

I am, therefore I create.......
