Some very light burning around the edges, unsharp mask and a frame are all I added to this image. The younger girl on the right is in fact missing part of her left arm.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote and especially comment. Submissions I have seen from past challanges have been very creative, and I've seen some photographers who shoot a particular style and find ways to alter it only enough to be applicable to a given challenge. I like shooting people, and kids are the wildest people I know. I understand the low marks, but had fun taking the picture and always enjoy participating in challenges. Thanks again for the feedback!
The photo itself is very well done, but seeing the tile, I still don't think it fits the challenge. "For the purpose of this challenge, "wildlife" should be considered non-domesticated mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians living in a natural environment." This is a guality photo for candid or family, but I don't think this would do well in this challenge.
Cute shot; very good technically, though I think the composition is too tight on the top, and the shadow figure upper left is distracting enough that I would have cloned it out. These comments notwithstanding, I don't see this meeting the challenge.
They are certainly mammals :) I'm sure your getting hammered because of the "non-domesticated" part, but I have daughters so I know where you're coming from :) The head in the background is a little bit of a distraction, as are the windows... Keep your chin up, this is going to be a long week for you full of low scores and hate-comments from folks that have no sense of humor or hate kids... Pay them no mind... It's a nice shot and a interesting slant on the challenge. If my membership becomes active before the voting ends, I'll give you extra credit for courage :)
