Ummm, your SBS (Step By Step) is designed for you to show how you blended or created the entire final result, "Step By Step". LOL.
I do like the final result, and am curious to see how you went about putting it all together. Did you use the path tool in the cutout procedure of the children, a lasso selection tool, or just create a mask and begin brushing the background away. For shadows, did you apply a drop shadow, create another underlying layer with a selection of the children, fill it with black, apply a Gaussian Blur then reduce the layer Opacity? It's these kinds of details that make an SBS such a treat for the viewer, and helps them understand your work flow.
