The perspective is great! Wish the clarity was a little better. I notice some spots throughout that could be dust spots on the lens.

Is the sky made in Photoshop? You should try to loose the halo around the girl to make it mor real.

Very cute. One of the few that in my opinion, really meets the challange. The colors work and the stop action is well executed.
