mom&child w/ replaced background

[Mytusi]

I was asked for the first time to go and take pictures of somebody that was not my close friends and family that are my usual subjects. It was so much fun!

I have a few cute mom and baby moments on this particular spot that I am not too crazy about the background. So I replaced it.

My question: does the sky look unnatural/ out of place? Especially around her hair.
Any other comments and criticism are welcome.
Thank you!

I looks very unnatural. Try using a sky photo that is angled towards the horizon and not straight up to create the necessary perspective.

Thanks, Archesdad! You are so right now that I look again at the picture. I did wonder about that initially but then the longer I worked on the picture, the more that thought disappeared.

Thanks a lot!

PS Couldn't find a picture of a sky that would work, so I just added some perspective to the one I used ...

I think that it looks like a sunny day (from the sky) but on on them? like the lighting on them doesn't match the sky?
but it's a very cute pose!!!
