could be a good idea using this photograph, the exposure is good and the colors and background are OK but i can't recomend because there is something very tense in the boy's posture, it can be seen in his facial expression and the way his hands are positioned.

Hello there. Great idea and composition. I agree with the comments about lighting as his face is in shadow.Perhaps reflector or fill in flash. My main concern is thaqt he doesnt look relaxed! Easy for me to say as I know how some children can freeze up when posed... Thanks for sharing. Leonard

Hi Tommy, I think you missed some masking around Moses' arm on the left. Cute idea, needs some fill in his face, particularly in his eyes.

I wish he were a little further away from dead-center...
