WOW - your portraiture is fantastic. This is literally "in your face" and I love his smile. The eyes are just superbly done. You have a gift for getting faces! His is a delight.
This is one of those photographs that is bound to become a family favorite, after all who could not love such a cute smile and sparkling eyes. he is a cutie and he is now in the big boy games.
Having said that, it is a rather static pose, and does not show anything about his personality or the individualness of the photographer. I would have loved to see this from a more interesting angle or perspective. That would move it from family snapshot to a real winner.
Overall the shot is spot on sharp, your colors are bright and clear and you have a darling model! Well done.
Snapshot with an unimaginative composition and an awkward expression. Good idea to use fill in flash, but the helmet has resulted in shadows being cast on the face. I would have experimented with unusual angles, perhaps from the side cropping in tightly into the eyes. This would have given more of an atmosphere of resolve and determination rather than a sheepish smile which is not really in keeping with the outfit.
