What a nice moment you have recorded. The back lighting and bokeh enhances the image too. 9.

Not bad, like the DOF and bokeh but this shot is in my opinion underexposed, I am sure the histogram disagrees with me but when I take shot´s like this I always expose for the subjects and just don´t care about blowing out the backround. That´s just my taste though... :)
