Your son is growing up to be such a handsome young man! He has such big, beautiful eyes. This looks great in black and white. I bet he misses the Japanese papparazzi tho lol

I agree with tnun. You have created a subtle, unique bokeh canvas behind your subject. Excellent.

I feel as if he had been plucked from a painting (Rousseau?) and now is about to step forth from the photograph. One of the rare photos that makes me pause for a very long time. No idea what it is doing in 48th place; maybe I should vote more often.

Great eyes! Nice separation of subject from the background via DoF. I like how the highlights in the water sparkle via bokeh. Love the expression! B&W is perfect to get us to focus on that sparkling face. My favorite so far. 9

I'm not a fan of B&W but i think you did a good job with the object. Maybe you could have a better Bokeh there.

What a great portrait. The tree's vertical lines make it look like it's shaking in the cold! Lots of interest.

My only suggestion would be to just have the river as a background as the tree dominates a little.
