I admit that I quite like this one. I don't know if it is on a hill, or you've deliberately slanted it, but it makes it all look quite dynamic. It works also because the child is dressed in pink/red - it wouldn't have worked quite so well if he/she had been dressed in more muted colours. I am not sure whether the child should take up a larger space in the frame or not - but I think the image works well on its own terms.

It was shot on a hill. I think though I had too much of the sky. Thanks for the comment.
First thing I have to say is I like the composition with the hills going up diagonally and the little one sitting on the rock.
On my monitor there is a pink cast to the clouds which look excellent with the pink clothing of the little one whether it is intentional or not.
Now for the bad news, To me the little girl looks uncomfortable in the picture and a little disturbing and the angle she's sitting at makes her look as if she's falling off the rock or has been pasted in from another picture, I not saying that she has but that's how I see it.
