 He’s not really the new kid, but there are NO other kids his age on our street. Most of the time he plays with his older sister and her friend.

aww. nicely shows how much the new boy feels like he sticks out, or how much we all feel like we stick out when we're new.

Nice image, I like the duo-tone look. Great use of space, very alone feeling. Child's posture helps convey the feeling well. With the title, I'm wondering if this would have a greater impact if a playground/schoolyard scene was in the background. Just a thought. 7

hmmm. "The new kid" title might have gone well with a group of children behind the subject out of the focal plane. However, this is a strong representation of alone in the image itself. Interesting composition, lines, textures.

I like the desaturation of the colors. The red shirt really stands out. Nice composition and nice interpretation of the challenge.

the shirt works really well - making him stand out from the background, though the rest of the colours seem strangely unnatural.

The desaturation of the colors really makes the boy stand out. Nice composition and use of negative space.
