I'd have like more depth but the longer exposure probably wouldn't have worked and I was going flash-less to be less conspicuous.

Nice moement, composition, colors. Wish that you moved higher to get an angle that included the eyes. Focus on faces would be better with DOF to include book.

I'm not much for receiving or giving comments, but since Candids are
near and dear to my heart, I have decided to give comment on every entry
in this challenge.

This is ok, but out of focus on the boys. I also think that children are far too easy as candid targets. Their emotions are usually very uncontained. I prefer something a bit more out of the ordinary for a candid. It's a 3 from me.

Good capture but its too buzy with so lot of colors specially at the backround. I would probably try it in b&w or sepia.
