I love it minus the glare. The tones are great, and his expression is priceless, yet the glare distracts from it. Nice shot though,

It appears like there is some sort of apparition in the window above him?

Love the composition and tones!

I think the apparition did a good job capturing this little goofing around moment. I'd crop it something like this to move his face away from center and remove the identifiable part of the grill whi I think pulls the eye out to the edge of the picture. The glare enforces in our mind that he has his face pushed up against a window pane and really isn't a problem since it doesn't obscure his face.
I like the tones throughout the frame - lots of interesting textures and little details when we want to look at them. It might need just a slight ccw rotation.

Hi SBoy,

Nice shot. I also agree with Chunk on the crop idea.

Dear Todd,

Very nice. The black and white works very well on this one. The door is a rich black and that helps your nephew's face stand out nicely. I like how you captured this shy, curious moment. The staples on the second crop might be a little distracting, but I wouldn't worry about them.As was mentioned, the glare is a tad distracting, as are the smudges, but you couldn't really help having those. A very nice job. Worth framing I might suggest. A keeper.
