Crop is too tight for my taste, but an unique idea (congrats for it) and B&W works well here! :-) Maybe the eyes could be sharper, too, and I would have showed more of the sledge.

This is a great shot, I give it an 8. It does, however, seem a bit over exposed and the crop is too tight on the left corner.

My pick for one of the ribbons. The child's expression stands out from the well composed shot.

Altogether not too bad. Its kind of on the cusp of not sharp enough, but as a portrait, I think its okay to not be pin sharp. I like the high-keyness of it, but you should've given him a little more "living" room, or room around him. This really tight crop is a little constrictive. This is a pretty recognizable kid too, esp sporting his Happy Valley garb, but I've been wrong before....

Greetings from the Critique Club!

This shot did fairly well, and I can see why. Black and White was a good choice for this, as it really brought out the simplicity. Perhaps the contrast/lighting made the image a little flat, keeping it from reaching the "6" mark.

I think the composition is perfect. I like how you have the trees in the front like that.

Congratulations on a great shot!

Steve

Poor cutout on his left shoulder

Great portrait! and even though the main subject is the boy and not the sled, I gave you a high mark. Only issue I have with the picture is the soft focus. Other than that, I like it very much. Good luck in the challenge.
