That's nice. The spontaneous nature forgives the lack of DOF. Well done.

thanks Cotty :)

I had in mind a horizontal in a aspect ratio approximating that of 4X6.

oh sorry!  I usually do things in 8x10.  I tried again, and I think
it's an improvement in comparison to the other crop, but when I
compare all three I still like the first one, even though the blur is
a distraction.

Rebekah, I wonder if you lost the bigger boy's legs - would it help a
bit? The expressions and general rendering are excellent!

Actually, that's as tall as the picture gets, I just cropped a bit of
one of the sides.  Thanks very much for the compliment!

Thanks everyone who took a look at this, and thanks for the advice and
comments.  I really appreciate all the time you guys take to share
your opinions because there is so much to learn from all of you.

Excellent shot. I've found it very difficult to sell the gallery on children 
pics, but this is a very nice one. Good luck.

I remember this one coming through.  It got a yes vote from me.  The
expressions are great.  Will it make it in the gallery?  Who knows.
It seems to be much more landscape oriented - less on people.

I think that from among my gallery shots, people pics outnumber all other

OH..I see. I agree, that is way too tight.

No left right crop, just the bottom.
Actually, you have a really nice shot here and one that needs no
fixing.
