I.... well.... I'm just..... you don't play fair.... grrrrrrr....
Notice to author.. You EVER Play on my heart strings like this again, I will show up on your door step and hit you with a wet Poodle... soaked in kool laid.. high marks under duress... you goober (this image gave me a smile that almost split my head in half... just wonderful)
Really good work on the reflection and the shadow - very natural, i recommend increasing the contrast of the cat a little bit to match it up to its surroundings.
Nice work! There shouldn't be a shadow on the vertical part of the window, light source is from outside...

CMYK the shadow on the window frame is from the flash used to take the shot...if you notice there is a shadow on the vertical parts in the original image check the shadows to the right mid center from the foliage... Ponti I sort of agree with you about the contrst of the cat, however it lost something in the upload, my working copy looks different, I'll try to tweak it thanks all
There's a part where the cowboy was that looks blurry. Also the cat needs some improvement, it needs more contrast.(I think its because of the camera's flash)
If you're able to fix the bit blurred space between the 2 cars would be very nice. I also think that the cat can do with a tiny bit more contrast. What you can do is duplicate the cat layer and set the blending mode in overlay and then play with the opacity. Apart from that, this is of course a very very adorable image Who wouldnt love kitties after seeing this entry ? Good luck!
EDIT: cat fits way better now

OK sander, wazowski, and ponti I made adjustments...I have a very shinny cat (h)
I agree with CMYK46, look at the reflection of the two original ones....try doing that by duplicating the baby and flipping it and then fixing the color from there.
Your thinking in the SBS is ok, but I recommend to make the pictures again. If you do, think well from what angle you'll take the pictures. Look at the perspective and distortion in the original, try to put your camera more or less in a same position so that the plants will fit better in the image. The dolls swap is funny, it's optional to adjust also their perspective/distortion. Check the window pane to have a clue what the distortion should be like. Good luck!

Well thanks for POINTING that out Wazowski...I'll try and adjust my perspective yes the window pane, which one the one I fixed?
My english is a disaster . I mean the white vertical strokes in the window are a good guide to see how the perspective/distortion for the plants (and if you want, but not necessary the dolls) should be. The dolls are partly covered by the plants, you dont see how they're standing, so their pose IS possible. But if you want them to stand straight in that perspective, especially the guy needs a bit of distortion (skew and then the top moving to the right). Good luck!
EDIT: I understand you have to do it with the sources you have, so then better make the best out of that . Certainly already improved, especially the left plant. The cowboy fits there better too
Nice image, but it looks like on tha vases there are shadows where there shouldn't be, such as around the edges of the leaves .I like the image otherwise. Good luck!
How about introducing a Flying Dragon with a fairy on it's shoulder carrying a Lightning rod with the moon in the back ground eating a hamburger with an angel shooting stars out her aw hoo hoo?
