The selective sharpening (or selective blur, can't quite tell which) has left some very distracting sharpness in the patterned backdrop around his head. I believe if you perform your selection with the image zoomed at 100% or greater you might be able to get a more accurate edge with your selection. This is a nice idea though, for portrait presentation, and is still a cut above average.

Pay attention to details. His bowtie should have been straightened.

The background in your photo distracts from your main subject. A darker material or a shallower DOF may have helps.

Very creative! I feel there is a bit too much for the eye to focus on in the photo, a little overwhelming.

LOL.....yeah, doesn't that stink? I heard about that and went..."HUH?" Why in this day and age would they use paint with that much lead? Or, for that matter, lead at all??? But, to your photo...nice statement! Love the clarity and focus. If I were to nit-pick (grin), it would be the "busyness" of the photo. There's a LOT going on in it! But, still....I like it!

well actually, that's incorrect since all of the poisoned toys were mostly dora the explorer and gog diego go toys. Still, I see what you're going for, so good job
