I find the pole behind his head distracting, otherwise strong image

Wonderful portrait...like the elements you use to make it more dinamic.

The boy's looking a little too J Crew. He should go play for a while and come back mussed, because otherwise this is a terrific photo. 7

Excellent portrait! Ignore comments about the pole behind his head - you can crop that out later if you wish. Really nicely done.

Beautiful clarity and handsome young subject model. With advanced editing (I know this is basic), the distracting pole could have been removed and given this photo even more impact. 7.
