My 19-month old granddaughter, pausing at the park during a pre-Halloween photo-shoot.
In PSE 2.0, I rotated the trees to vertical, cropped more tightly, used Unsharp Mask, cloned out a blue swingset in the distant background, darkened the sky, and boosted the saturation slightly.
Portraits are not my strong suit, so I submitted this to get some critiques, but it's one of my best 2 people pictures for the month.

This is ever so sweet, and I love how she is right there in that opening in the line of trees, it seems to give her presence more power in the composition. This is a photo she is going to love when she gets older, (and I'll bet she loves it now, too!).
