This is deeper than it seems. Quite special IMO.

I'd like to see the left corner of the raft for a greater sense of isolation.

Lots of classic mistakes evident in this shot. The subjects are all looking straight into the camera, and because of that the viewer doesn't get any feeling of 'action' or sense of fun. 3 on the raft and one diving/jumping in or splashing each other and obviously laughing might bring this image to life.
At the moment it's a record shot of some kids in the rain, nothing exciting to be an honest viewer.
