Nice and crisp looking but the PP has been over cooked.

the masking seems a bit clumsy on this (I see haloing), which detracts from the candid feel.

This looks a little overworked for my taste. The bricks don't look like their color is 'right' and you seem to have a little bit of sharpening artifacts around his legs...
