Obviously very cute, and a great time of day for the light. Might have been worth having a reflector to the right to throw some light back into his face

Really nice warm tones in this image. Would like to have seen the effect of reversing this and having the subject face on to the light..with the shadows playing on the face.
Good work

Lovely late sun tones and a nice balance between foreground and background. The sharper focus is on his shirt takes your eye from his face but it is still an attractive portrait.

Very cute shot! I think his face could've been a little bit lighter. Maybe have him facing twords the sun?

nice candid shot...the sun on his ear has left some distracting lighting problem for you...I like the outdoors shot

Totally cute capture. I immediately thought of my daughter and just how amazingly lovely kids are when they are engrossed in learning something or playing with something. It's just so much fun to see them making those connections in their heads. This little guy looks intent on something. Sadly the photo looks a little soft on his face. A gold reflector (or fcb) would have been great on the righthand side of this shot as well to bring a little more light onto his face.

Absolutely beautiful work!
This is my first 10 of the challenge, but I̢۪m not far into the voting yet.
I love the sunset cast to this. The soft background is a perfect way to bring all the attention to your subject. My only suggestion would be to open up the crop just a bit on all four sides. There is nothing in the shot pulling the viewers eyes away from the subject, so give him just a little more room. Still a perfect 10

Creative interpretation of the challenge. The shallow focus does well with all the detail in the photo as well. -9-
