Very nice. Try moving the kid to one side of the image to help create more mood

This is a very interesting shot. There is plenty of negative space :) The soft focus here, i believe, is VERY effective in this situation. When I look at this image, I am drawn directly to the child's face. The interest that i find there is the fact that it is split between light and dark right down the middle. I believe that this would have been a GREAT composition of just the head and shoulders of this boy in the firelight :) As the image is presented here, I would have preferred a minor movement of the subject to the right side of the frame to make the entire image more off balance :) - very nice shot and great idea :) - jmsetzler

This shot isn't bad. I don't know but I just kinda don't like the red in this. 5

Tough lighting situation to get good focus. Did you use a tripod and tell him to FREEZE! :o) Might be good with him not centered. The really cool part is his face. You don't need all the extra space around him. His face alone has enough neg space.
