| I have no idea at all how this did not score much, much higher. One of my very few 10s in this challenge. |

| I like this very much. The background ties nicely into the skin tones and shirt. Body position ties into him looking over his shoulder. |

| Voted earlier coming back to leave comments. This is a spectacular portrait of this boy. It is completely natural in that he is either not aware of the camera or very comfortable in front of it. Shading and lighting are great for we see the light fall mostly just upon his face. Like shining a spotlight on just him to call attention to his eyes and his expression. He is looking away at something off in the distance. What it is, we know not, but we wonder just what has captured his attention. As we wonder the boy continues to hold our attention. The bokeh of the backdrop is perfect because it adds very warm hues of orange and golds to this casual portrait. The colors bring in the hues of the sun and they become a halo to envelop this boy and crown him the 'sunshine boy'. |
