Na, skip the hands. Otherwise, great shot.

I find the background is too bright and here's a Golden Mean crop.

It's just a little too staged for me. Cute idea though with the girls dressed as angels.

The tree-trunks on either side of the main picture (which I like -- good context) end up looking like the arms connected to the hands, which I find distracting. So I'm 100% with PointNShoot.

The hands seem a bit too much for me. They're really distracting from the cuteness of the girls. Nix 'em.

+1 to removing the hands... they creep me out!

My impression is that the little girls are playing to be saved FROM those creepy hands...


Unless that's what the intention of the picture really was...
