 When I took this shot my son was goofing around hiding on me (crouching down) while I was trying to take his photo. I ended up pre-focusing on his hands waiting for him to pop up ... this was one of the "misses" and I really like the bokeh background from the fallen leaves in the yard behind the fence.

good colorful bokeh in your negative space. I like the slight asymmetry of the hands.

That's some nice bokeh to highlight the negative space.

FYI, watch out for blue tinge in shadow areas. A little bit of painting out that blue could really help.
