Nice image and expression of the face gives a good representation of a hope. Nice model to. You might say that the face is litle to overburned but it works all right for me. Would have liked litle more fidling with the levels to make the right side darker, more contrast.
Nice capture. IMO if you focus more on the eyes of the kid and show the window view in his eyes, the light, this might be improve a little. but yes this is for sure a good photo :)
