OK folks, I wasn't really a fan of the pink border either, but I wanted something to set the pic off of the background and a black border was too stark. So, I went with a pink that matched a pink in the pic. Mistake, lesson learned. Tanguera essentially hit my thought pattern right on the head.

Otherwise, thanks for the positive comments.

Very good concept. I love the balloons you did use; good thought progess, but I would have turned the rocking chair more to the left than shoot it straight on. Having the chair straight on is a bit awkward to the eye. perhaps you could have changed the carpet color to pink instead of adding the pink border?

I like your subject(s) very much and the composition is fine. It seems a litle washed out, is it possibly over-exposed? Also, the carpet and baseboard seem a little pinkish, which may indicate you need a little color correcting. The girl is adorable, the pink frame is unnecessary in my opinion.

Love the look on her face, and the balloons are gorgeous. But you didn't trust the content enough and added that PeptoBismol border (gag), and saturated the living daylights out of her dress.
