I think the green is too saturated. But other than that, I think this is an ADORABLE image! I do wish that you had made the image bigger. Be sure to use the full size allowed (dimension wise). If you had trouble fitting the full size into 150Kb, try reducing the quality (increasing compression). Another thing to try, would be to only selectively sharpen, and then avoid sharpening tiny details like grass (the grass is probably chewing up a large portion of the 150Kb in your image).

Wonderful expression and lighting. I like that he almost appears to be waving to me. :-)

Love the expression on the baby's face as daddy gives him a kiss. And even from the side, you can tell that daddy is smiling too. A lovely portrait.

I really love the expressions here. This one says to me "We're so proud of our son". Plus, you can see all three faces, which is hard to get in this kind of portrait. The lighting could be a little bit softer, but I like that the baby has more light than the parents. It puts emphasis on him. The picture is, after all, all about him, with the parents (even with such important expressions) paying a secondary role.

And unless they all have really red skin (some people do!) I think the red needs to be dialed back just a bit (if you adjust it towards yellow but a notch or two, I think it will look more natural).

Please...

Saw someone do this right in front of us as we were driving down the road one day. This guy looks like he's safely behind a fence. But the one we saw... it was scary to think he could topple over with all those cars driving around him!
