Beautiful composition and bokeh. Fitting title. I think you let yourself down with a too slow s/s as there is blur. The tongue would have been so much better as would the overall focus. Yes, trying light, I agree. Harsh? Maybe but to be printed NG are I think very choosy, especially as they have such a huge stock library.

And he's sticking out his tongue! Nice. Could be a bit brighter.
