A nice enough snapshot, but that's really all this is, right? True, the child is backlit, so technically meets the challenge, but no wow factor, no compelling object of interest (though the kid is cute). The centered subject makes for a rather ho-hum photo.

Snapshot... blurry, disctracting background. The backlighting doesn't really enhance this photo.

Too grainy. Otherwise good composition, backlighting, and overall happy pic.

umm....not sure what to say, but the child has very grainy skin. Result of high ISO? 3

This comes across as a simple family snapshot I might develop a thousand a week of at the camera shop. Sorry, but I find it lacking.

Meet's the challenge and well executed (it can be very difficult) but your picture is a bit to pixelated and it's not realy a very good composition.
I don't try to be mean, but there is so mutch in the background that is distracting, so now it looks like "just another snapshot" i.s.o. a wow photo.
