DSS6 two alternatives

OK, need advice.

Current entry which I think is a safe shot for the theme:

Where the fairies live

357883954_2kWwg-O.jpg

I've photographed this castle before and I've been working a lot in the former Eastern part of Europe this year, so I had a nice opportunity during this round to get back there again (It's in Bojnice in central Slovakia).

Or, something a little more off-beat theme-wise (and perhaps not well executed technically), but going more for a story:

Sunday morning, no kids

TIA.

    Thanks Pyro.

    I'm a little concerned that it isn't really on the theme. Having downloaded it and processed quickly, it a little different to what I originally pictured in my mind. To me it fits a relaxation theme, which can be splendorous, but perhaps it isn't splendor.

    I don't know, I'm a bit confused.

    Regards,

    Peter

    I really like number two, but you are right ... It's hard to fit itinto the theme. Nowif you had a packet of Splenda visible with the coffee I could see that fitting in :)

    Thanks everyone.

    I agree on the Splenda play-on-words addition and had thought of it as well. But in Holland I can't find it anywhere.

    I switched the entry anyway. I haven't been too good at picking what the judges like so far in the DSS, but there was a response up earlier indicating that it was on theme so it has at least as much chance as the original (though the response and my reply have been deleted).

    Regards,

    Peter
