Great capture. Nothing like the innocence of children who have yet to master the art od deception and the hiding of emotions. Bump.

I like this shot. He is certainly a happy Samurai.

I don't like the close crop of this image. The dark blob in the background behind his left eye is distracting, and leads my eyes out of the frame.

Good composition, and I'm sure you've heard other helpful comments by now

can't really tell what the emotion is

very confined framing, and perhaps a bit soft. Nice action

Excellent tonal values and totally conveys pleasure. A little reflected light on the left side fo the face to soften shadows would make this a 10.

nice portrait...just a bit too soft on the focus

Not great lighting, which is harsh and creating too many shadows.

its a nice photo.... the photo quality makes this look a bit like you were standing far away and zoomed in a lot get a close up of the face. Or maybe you used a high iso setting?

Great crop and colours. Not quite sharp enough for me, though.

Adorable little guy! Love the red, I only wish it were a tiny bit sharper.

It is a bit grainy, and the focus does not seem to be on the eyes.

WHAT an adorable face -- full of emotion!!!! And this looks so natural and unstaged. I feel emotional just looking at him :) I love your tight cropped composition! I love it!

A moment captured, well done

focus is a little too soft for me

Nice photo. The left cheek shows a little over sharpening. There is some noise in the childs left hand side. A little more over all clarity and fixing the red in the head bacnd would make this more solid. 6.

A cute shot but lacks any strong focal area. Color is good, composition is good.
