Tam, great balance. Symmetry is a great theme for this. Your lighting is well done, catching the faces just right. If you would have moved to your left, you would reposition the hands and umbrella handle to get separation. As it is, the hands of the sisters obscure the profile of the sister on the right.
Last month you received a comment about shooting in bursts. That's continuous shooting at 6-12 frames per second. This might have given you a split seconds before and after which might have had the hands and face separated where you stood.
You should try shooting this way. Professionals use bursts for this reason.

You did capture the light very well. This image works well as a monochrome. I'm just wondering if you really need all the negative space at the top of the image. You might want to consider cropping a bit off the top.

I agree with Jim regarding continuous shooting.A series of photos will give you the opportunity to choose the best one.
Cropping to remove some of the negative space at the top would improve the photo.

Tam It is good if you would have provided more information about the photo.

This is a very nice photo. Good composition, very well balanced. Unobtrusive background. Good color variation. The backlighting enhances the image quality.

A little cropping from the top might improve the photo.   Posted: 09/11/2021 23:11:51

This really wonderful. The merger of the faces and hands is a problem that I think might be partially addressed by very slightly increasing the contrast and the sharpening of the area. thsat might just give some separation.   Posted: 09/13/2021 12:53:28
