I like the expression of the youth in this photo, I wish you would have been closer however. The elements in this photo just don't hold my attention. There is a little bit too much wall and school. I do like the movement of the child in the background, this adds a bit to keep my eye moving.
This photo just doesn't get me like most of your work...a good moment captured, but it is not holding my interest. Is this one of your older photos?
Cheers.
I'm always mentally photographing everything as practice.

Its a good shot but like Tao said, perhaps a little closer. The kid makes the shot, but he is so small compared to the rest of it... You want to see more. I'd crop out about half the bottom wall. Seems stronger w/o so much blockage.

He is happy and proud for you to photograph his school. "This is my school".
But what is that other rascal up to running out from behind the bush; trying to mess up your photographic effort or has he just nicked the exam papers from the heads office while his friend keeps you entertained. A nice amusing shot Tuna.

I have a total lack of respect for anything connected with society, except that which makes the roads safer, the beer stronger, the food cheaper, and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer. Brendan Behan
Tuna, the overall aesthetics of this image is pleasing, with it's contrasty tones and rich b&w. I like the framing, and that you left an opening at the left allowing the scene to open up and breathe. I agree the image might be stronger with the child nearer, but his moment is working well.
