This was a quick shot at the last second, quite a bit of work to get the rear image sharper, and the skin smoother, it is a mirror shot!!.
Thanks for the comments.

What a lovely shot. I really love the personality in this photo, as well as its simple nature and non-reliance on post processing to carry it through. I definitely had to do a double take to tell if they were really twins or not (and that's a testament to the picture, for sure)! :-) My biggest complaint would be that I feel you could have either closed the aperture to get both boys in focus, or perhaps instead, shifted the focus to the subject who is facing us and making the connection with the viewer. Although the boy in the foreground is closer, he is looking off to the side and isn't, in my eyes, where I want the focus to be: right at the catchlights in the eyes of the boy who is looking right at us. Other than that, a beautiful picture with a lot of heart and nice, appropriate colors throughout. Great job.
