    I think you are right with the sky. I edited it and got rid of most of the sky since it wasn't helping the picture. It also makes the kids less centered. But as far as the subject I really like it. It is well spotted and well done.

    Tyson, I was going to suggest what Greg already did. I'd take a little more off the bottom though. Give it more of a wider format look.

    Actually... the "white" sky doesn't bother me, but having so much of it is superfluous. I would go for a crop, as well, but I would leave the entire roof of the house, and maybe even the top of the pole. It could be straightened a little to level the top of the roof (I think) and that would remove some sky, as well. Other than that... pretty nice photo. Brings back memories of walking along the tracks... but we didn't own bikes back then.

    It's good for what it is, but when people have their backs to the shot it's really hard for it to work. Just my opinion
