Late commenting so not reading others comments - sorry if I am repeating others views:

After reading what you have posted, the child is the focal point of the shot.. he looks adorable and is happy and glowing - that's a given so let's look a litte bit deeper into this shot.. dad looks a little bit rushes.. why is that? well lots of reasons come to mind.. he is late to day care.. he is late to work .. whatever.. then there is the woman off to the left.. she is out of the light .. but not out of the shot.. is she the mom? she is not feeling as stressed.. she is just bopping along.. why is that? interesting is it not? use to be a man that would be not interested - now it is the woman... have we really come so far? leave it up to you all .....

Wow. Great shot! There are many things to like here but one thing that stands out for me is the fence. Up close it's visible and acts like nature is caged up like an animal at a zoo but when viewed from a distance the fence disappears and man and nature become one again. I think I prefer to see it at distance.

Carquinez Regional Shoreline? Beautiful foreground -- love the silky texture on the water. The sugar factory gets in the way of those nice bridge lines in the distance and the landscape hides the south tower of the new bridge. A horizontal shot may have worked better here if you had a wide enough lens to capture both the pier and the full sweep of the bridges.
