I agree that this has an "old" feel to it. The boy even looks like he came from the 1920s or so. For some reason, his expression reminds me of what Shirley Temple looked like when she sang : ) I don't mind the darkness too much since his eyes still bring you in. Maybe cropping out some of the background (which is kind of dark) would help even things out a bit too. Nice shot.

He looks very unhappy to have a hot dog! Or contemplative? It's a little dark and perhaps moving the subject a little more off-center would be nice.

Such a serious expression! Very nice candid, has an "old" feel to it.

Nice moody shot. I like the contrast, and my eye is really drawn to that gorgeous head of hair.
