Many fine images in this challenge, and HDR processing often subtly used to draw out and enhance the mood, but your image stands out for me. HDR and emotion, here endearing joy, combine in support of each other to terrific effect. It's as if the boys' happiness, shining eyes and all, is being made available to us, in case we've forgotten what it's like.
Personal favorite of the challenge.

I like the drama between the faces, which the viewer knows is imagined but is compelling nonetheless.

The tilt of the bike is all. I'd eagerly see this movie.

very powerful - but please, less sharpening that creates halos
