This works for me Adam. A moment to savour for this little boy when he looks back over time. A nice composition. I like the way his blue clothing draws the eye to him. nice work!
Thanks for the comments. He's at that stage where every smile is canned or "mugged" or otherwise goofy. I caught him off guard because he was afraid of falling out of the tree.
Now that I look at it again, it seems too yellow. Maybe I'll fix that and post it again.
