I really like this. Color and composition are excellent. The only thing I don't like is the frame, but then I'm never big on borders that try to look like real 3D frames so it's just a personal preference.

Comment by eschelar:
This is a seriously wonderful picture. The only thing I can say that might be better is the lighting on the seagull. You might consider experimenting with the dodge tool in Photoshop. I personally don't like doing that for natural photos like your daughter's, so I would say that it is amazing as it stands. The gull is in exactly the right place. The composition is excellent. Your daughter has an amazing eye! This is a wonderful way to take advantage of the DOF of digital cameras.

This is a re-placement of an earlier message when I didn't quite click in on the method in the Comment Chain thread

hey shapiro
your daughters got a nice eye
The composition is nice and all that jazz, and I saw this a lot... But I think a little photoshopping could really bring some things out. For example, if you dodged the seagul a bit, it would really make the shot.

I really like the composition of this. I can see a bit of white fringe around the fireman though-perhaps from unsharp mask?

I like the subject of your photo. I'm not so crazy though about the color tone you used.
