    Nice but way too much dead space on the sides of the frame. Plus it seems tilted to the left.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Along the lines with MB1 too much dead space thru out shot also maybe a shallower DOF and possibly shooting the kids at a lower height level if that makes sense.

    Agree, it is always a good idea to shoot kids from their eye level instead of looking down on them.

    Its got the basic substance for a great shot. The way it's presented looks like a snapshot but it can be better. I suggest cropping off about half-way between the boy and the border to make the photo off center. You may want to take some off thebottom as well.

    Thank you for your comment though and I agree wirh the dead space but you see, the little boy dont want to stay put and this was the shot I quickly zap it. should I crop vertical instead?

    Verticle crop would help immensely IMHO along with a rotation of 1.5deg clockwise (right)
