If the artwork is not private owned nor copyrighted, you are Ok. I guess there are some related laws about the requirement of getting "artist release". National Geographic asked me to get an "artist release" from the windmill owner but later changed to "location release" from the (private owned) tulip farm's owner when I was willing to compete for the first place in this contest. If I was unable to get the release, I would be DQed from that contest before the voting phase started.

IMO, a tighter crop on the left would have moved the boy out of the dead center and closer to the left 1/3. Boy's expression is priceless.

Very cute!!

I think the crop here is a poor choice that really hurt a strong image.

Effectively it's cropped him at the knees, which is a bad thing, mid thigh would have been much stronger and more compelling I think.
