I assume by the title that the point of the picture is the fish. If that is so, a different angle that would draw more attention to the fish would be helpful. As it is, my eyes are drawn up and over with the little girl's pole, completely away from the fish.

What a great setting. If this is your backyard I am very jealous.

Hmm, if it was framed with the little boy a bit further from the edge, this would be really nice. I love the graceful curve of the fishing rod, and the way the chlidren are standing. The surroundings are beautifully oriental and exotic at least to an Australian like me :).

Thanks for the comments. The "rug" is actually driveway cement, the board was 44"x44" (to accommodate the CDs). My favorite photo editing software (CPIC, shareware) doesn't output images sized to agree with this site. It says it's 640x480, but the site keeps rejecting my shots. Future submits will be cropped, or I'll die trying.
The CD tilted in the center was to "add interest" (my aim).

I think you could have cropped this a little tighter to remove the carpet around the edge.
