I agree with Jessa that there is a lot to like with this shot, and some things to work on. I love the subject's expressive eyes. I wonder if the composition would have worked better if the boy was leaning more into the window (perhaps with arm up on the ledge) to also give a little separation from the background.

Thanks, guys, I appreciate it.
boyd, this was taken in Burma (too bad Vazaar still doesn't accomadate titles or descriptions of images), and I was just glad he didn't run away once I lifted my camera to take his picture. But asking him to change his pose would have been difficult.

I might have played with the DOF to separate the boy from the background a little more or perhaps cloned out the hand and white glob that looks like it's growing out of his head. I think the colors and comp are right, maybe play with the levels some if I were nitpicking.
