This really makes me feel the relaxed feel of a spring morning. That said, there are a lot of elements in this shot that distract the viewer's eye from your subject. The hanging basket in the foreground, the vacant chair on the photographer's right as well as the play house all draw the eye from the subject.

There is way too much going on here. Zooming in and having your subject looking at you would have been so much better. Good luck

I envy Emma :) It looks overexposed and a bit blurry. Looks like you focused on the leaves behind Emma, than herself. This picture has potential, however I would've tried different angle to avoid the children house, as it looks plastic and doesn't add to the picture.

I think the big white basket mid left is a bit distracting from the sunject. Otherwise quite nice.

Appealing and quaint - definitely has a nice calm mood to it ... where's my tea? :)
Picky points: The horizon in the distance near the top makes a recrop a good idea (crop to eliminate the sky). Also- I actually have that same plastic house in my back yard but I don't think it fits well in the otherwise natural elements of this shot. The composition is good though. 6
