Lani, Lani, Lani. I'm so glad you decided to start posting here. I like this picture a lot. I think proportionally, it works perfectly, but as others indicated, maybe the sharp part of the photo should be refocused on either a) the large ornament which takes up a lot of the photo, or b) the child herself. Personally, I think option (a) would probably be preferrable.
Although the DOF is "right" in this image, focusing on the middle ornament is quite random. Since it's the only one in focus, my attention is drawn to it but then I'm left wondering what the significance of the middle ornament is. I would've liked to see an outtake with her maybe reaching for the middle one or simply looking at it.
Cute picture, definite DOF, but I question choosing the second ornament as the focal point. The blurry closer ornament dominates too much of the picture. Shifting slightly lower to put the closer ornament higher in the upper left corner and showing more of the 2nd ornament in focus with the girl in the background would have worked better IMO.
