too much young person to die, I want well but where is the subject of the photograph. The tree imposing or the little boy sitting on one crushed that one hardly sees. The photograph seems me to be a little except subject, my opinion personal.

Huh? Is the image showing someone young in danger?

I would have liked this shot better if the tree were not there.Also, while you have a beautiful sky, the subject is horribly under exposed. With this shot, you need to spot meter the subject, AE Lock and recompose.

Sorry I don't find this image particularly easy to comment on. It has fundemental flaws in composition and lighting. Looking up is always a difficult viewpoint to achieve a good result.

the window's a bit bright, which directs my attention away from your subject.

Good idea, but execution could be tuned.

Things to work on: The Window lighting is distracting. Change angle so that the window light comes from your back or from off to a side.

This would also eliminate the shadows from the flash, whcih make this a snapshot quality photo.

Try to use the rule of thirds in your photos. The subject, in this case the girl would have been stronger if she had been moved to the very left of the composition with books filling the rest of the frame.

The background is a little distracting.

This looks too much like a snapshot. The girl should at least have her eyes open
