Good processing. Border a little heavy. Wish the face was slightly brighter.

The body language of your subject is not that of someone in pain, It's more likely, he would be trying to withdraw from the world and curled up in a ball. good photo technique

Comment by SandyP:
This is a moving photograph - and a great depiction of pain. Something about the "young-ness" of the guy -- and the poignancy of the name being "Hope". I like the picture a lot. It looks like maybe there was a little too much contrast from the bright sky, which makes the focus and the levels off when adjustments are made to compensate for it. I have had to learn that lesson the hard way. It's a hard problem to fix in a photo. But I really do like the picture a lot.

This is a great picture, nicely composed, I like the touch of the red flowers (?) in the upper right corner. I hope this one will end in the top 10. (10)
