Wow - shooting children is HARD! I needed a faster ISO and more light than for some of those birds in the zoo photos...they just don't sit still!
This is the best of a bad lot...and I know the shadow from the visor is a problem across the face but this one had the nicest expression and best focus/hand gestures.
I don't expect anything from this one - anything 5 will be fine.
PP: convert from RAW, levels, usm, nn, resize, jpg.
Post Challenge: I think that's a new PW. Wooooohooo. Must_try_harder!

The length of exposure added some odd finger/hand effects. It is really difficult to tell if it was desired, as this is the only place in the shot that I see that.
