*** July 09 challenge voting - Enchantment ***
PLEASE VOTE FOR 1 ENTRY
PLEASE REP THE ENTRIES YOU VOTE FOR
Another month passes and thank you to those who took part. Some truly beautiful entries this month with only a short amount of time to complete them, possibly explaining why other entries were unfinished.
This month's challenge subject was:
We had many imaginative entries which truly summed up the word 'enchantment' , unfortunately we can only each vote for one of them.We are are looking for a magical map, the kind that maybe held you as a child that you saw in an illustrated book or maybe the more scary type. Rich colours, places which suggest an otherwordliness....the choice is yours...we want a map which spells and epitomises the word 'enchantment' and what it means to you.
Good Luck to the contestants and thanks for voting!

If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

Noooooooooooo... why did I get just one vote?
Some very good entries, but had to choose between Jykke and Tear. It was very, very hard, but I finally went with Jykke.

I ultimately had to go with Tear as I felt that was the one that best embodied the challenge.

A few unfinished ones, a few excellent entries done but for me too the map from Tear had that word enchantment in spades. Jykkes was marvelously done and m^5pig's was a nice book like illustration but alas for them my vote went to Tear this time.
Coin flip here!
It was tough again, I almost went for Tear, but Jykke has tried so hard the last several challenges and the giant turtle is very nice. So I just flipped a coin and Jykke won.

It's the turtle that did it for me. As I looked at the other ones I was thinking "oh cool" but when I figured out the turtle I said "Oh Neat!" out loud. How could I not vote for that one
LOL... let's see if this is going to be another close contest then.

Oh man. I really wanted to enter this contest, but didnt have time... Kinda glad I didnt because I had a similar Idea to Tear's. Though, he went about it way differently then I was thinking about it. It turned out Ridiculously awesome!
In the end, though, I think I will go with Jykke. Ive always liked the idea of the massive turtle that has people living on it, and the map just kind of struck me
I wish i could vote for two though
All were great!
Oh!That light of dusk, jykke!
But my vote goes to the Tear's enchanted island.
