    Hi Kate. I'm personally not feeling it. It definitely is a shot about being afraid, but doesn't feel natural.
    Also, and I'm sure it's my own personal preference, but modern patterned kids clothes, and adult clothes with large logos, etc-- take me out of a photograph quicker than anything.
    I think it may be that our eye is naturally draw to text in an image. And I think we're so conditioned in this world of in your face advertising that we 'expect' there to be a recognizable logo, text, pic on the garment that I personally find myself seeing if it's SpongeBob, or Nike or .....? At that point the subject becomes the garment for me. Good luck!

    I agree, the clothes did distract from the goal. Maybe a conversion to B&W?
