Superb capture...it is disappointing yet not surprising that this sublime work didn't place much higher...definitely one of my faves!

How you didn't place in the top 3, especially over the parrot is beyond me. Your photograph is beyond extraordinary and I commend you to no end for capturing a brilliant photo filled such emotion and technical brilliance.

i really like this, because of the dof, i think. it's like he is saying 'talk to the hand'. :) i might have cropped closer to the right elbow to take him a little out of center, but stil a really cool shot.

I like the mood in this photo. I could see it accompanying an article in a parenting magazine.

Very nice capture, a different approach to a portrait. The DOF gives the image the so called "wow-factor" IMHO. Posture gives the feeling of running, and it looks like you got just the right fraction of a second and focus on this one. Supershot, should go on your wall. [edit: my number 2 pick in a very good challenge]
