As they say, great minds think alike. I'm glad yours did well. My subject was only halfway cooperative and it doesn't look as cute when he is half grown.
Composition- Very good job with the subject. I like pictures that use the rule of 3'rd which you did very well here. Background- Nice job capturing the texture of the water, it definately adds to the overall picture. Technical- Nice exposure and focus. Might have tried to use some kind of flash to brighten the legs a bit. Good job getting them too show how wet they are.Overall impression- A good photo, meets the challenge well, Makes me wish for warm weather..writing this comment just increased my vote on this shot too...8.
Fun -- I can almost feel the cool water. Wonder if you'll get comments about the glare on the feet -- in my opinion, it just shows that he (I assume) is wet. Because of the blue tones on the skin and shorts, I wonder if this was a little over saturated. The water looks great this blue, but not the skin tones. I think maybe backing off of that a touch wouldn't help.
The colours are very vivid in this picture.. Helps to add to how nicely this shot came out. Hope the poor kid didn't have to stay under too long while you shot 200+ shots.
Nicely composed. Shame you got the dark side of him. I'd either adjust the gamma on the red channel down to about 0.94 or adjust the green channel to maybe 1.1, as I see a reddish cast.
