I Like it! The concept and execution is good. Detail including cloud shadows. Nice touch.

Nice, I would remove the sofa from the background if you can to really give the impression he's sitting on the clouds and not the sofa. I would also burn in the screen image you put on the tv as it really jumps out form the rest of the image by being so bright

Nice job with the couch! I would have stuck with the Mario image though, thought it played well with your son as the subject.

I agree. The Mario theme with the clouds is a better connection than with Lego Yoda ...

Definitely like the concept.

I still feel the screen is still a dominant factor. And it seems a bit odd to have your son in focus and not the TV stand. Throws off the plane of DOF.

For grins ... could you put in a Mario Kart Photo on screen instead. The character that starts the races is on a cloud. Kinda puts your son in the game. :)

Very cool concept.

But honestly. I play Super Mario Brothers like this daily. I fact, I just finish putting my cloud away as I have just finished a game.
