Impossible - Wallpaper

So, I made this wallpaper today and I'm not sure of how it turned out, but I'll post it to get critiques :)

Nice wp Mar, simple, but very effective. Your choice of text along with your choice of imagery are perfect, both as separate elements in connection to the concept of the piece as as combined elements reflective of each other (the facial expressions of Susan and Peter are all too perfect for the concept). As for text, layout looks great and coloration works nicely as well. I'm not sure on how the image is cropped for the film, but here the top of Susan's forehead seems to create a tangent with the edge of the wp (a bit distracting for me, I need to see some more hairline there). The snowflake designs also add a nice design touch. Good work :ymapplause: .

I love the colouration of this one! You must have darkened it a little bit, because that shot is typically very bright, the main advantage of this is that the white text stands out very beautifully. The snowflakes are a bit distracting for me (while the fact that Susan's face is tangent to the top of the wallie is not). Overall, well done. It's simple, but beautiful.

Thank you both so much for the critiques! Lion's Emblem, I now see that I should have cut the image differently, you're right about hairline, it would have looked better. And, DiGoRyKiRkE, I did touch the colouration because I wanted the text to have more contrast. Thanks again! :)
