Hello from the Critique Club,
My initial impression of this image was that the focus looks a little soft in the face of the little boy. I'm not sure if you sharpened after downsizing this image (Most people use USM), if so, than you might want to consider doing a bit more localized sharpening on the face. Another small suggestion would be to crop just a bit off the left side of the image to remove most or all of the large snowflake that is hovering on the person dressed in black. This will do two things for this image, remove a major distraction and move the boy further off center, which helps present a stronger feel that he is at the top of the hill.
This image is a wonderful capture and I love the movement of the people around the little boy. Without this movement, they would just be a collection of legs competing for the viewer's attention. With the movement, it gives the image some action to play off the static placement of the boy. Nice find and I really enjoyed reviewing this image.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique.
