Hi John Might give it a slight contrast boost but I like it very much !!! If anything would crop some from the bottom. Nailed the head angle !!! Excellent !!!

Hi John,
I like your capture and image...a few things need to be addressed. I made the modifications to illustrate my points. The little guy is centered in frame. I cropped from the right side of the frame and added canvas to the left, in the direction he is walking. I ran noise reduction in the background, increased saturation and contrast levels. selective sharpened the eye and face area. I introduced various tones or hues of green in the background, and applied a color gradient from the right to the left. also toned down the whites in the sand, and blurred it to give it a smooth cotton candy feel. see if this sits well with you...:cool:
