I'm exploring some of the prompts for Childhood Week. First one is: Pact. I thought of cliff jumping at the beach or at a waterfall swimming hole, my friends and I trying to psych each other up- "if you jump, I'll jump" sort of thing.
I've come up with a few loose ideas. Which one do you like best? I'm not necessarily worried about fulfilling the prompt per say, but more about using it as a jumping off point for a fun image.

3 is really high, like way high but has nice perspective, I like 2 because of what other characters are doing too. I have a story; my best friend use to come to my cottage when I had one and we wore life jackets but we made that sort of promise, so I jumped and she didn't and she was like come out and do it again together and I was like okay, I did it again and she didn't and I was like I am staying in the water whether you are coming in or not. lols
@Heather-Boyd Oh no she didn't! Betrayal! 
lol.
Oof, yeah I guess it does look really high. I'd need to fix that if I went with 3.
My favorite for composition and connection between the characters is three. Second favorite is 2. Buy I like that before the moment of action and connection in three.
I LOVE the interaction between the characters in 3! (It does look like it might be a bit of a jump for such young characters though?) But, I think you've nailed the anticipation (and in-it-togetherness) with their body language... the slightly bent knees, the hand holding, the expression... Fantastic!
@TessaW i love 3
I love 3 and screams "pact". 2 is a fun image in general
@TessaW I like 3 but 2 works nicely aswell.
I love #3 - "the moment before" is always has a lot more tension to me. And it hit the prompt clearer.
Thank you guys so much for your input! Here's a WIP of what I have so far. Is the setting clear? Does the height look appropriate? Do the figures look like they are relating to the perspective appropriately?

@TessaW yes, the height issue appears fine now. It’s looking great and the perspective looks good to me.
Yeah I agree the perspective looks good now! Appropriate jump for children!!
Now all the picture is missing is, in the water you need a shark silhouette 
Yes! Thank you guys!
@Frost-Drive Lol! That would turn it into a bit of different story. 
The spot I based this off of had a shark sighting there once! Whoops. Nobody was jumping there for a bit.
#3 is very cool.
