Hi, Rebecca.

I have come back now three times to this photo, and have the same immediate response. I would recommend you check your sizing, as the boy's head looks very slightly too large, and the girl's head very slightly too small. When you Photoshop (don't you love how "Photoshop " has become a verb?) the images as you have done, even the tiniest (and I really mean SMALL) size change makes an enormous difference.

The only other comment I would have is to be careful about how you render the boy's leg on our right, as it touches the dress in a rather awkward way.

I agree with Steven about wanting to be careful about placing horizon lines halfway, but I think it is placed exctly right with respect to the little boy's head (a la Norman Rockwell!).
