I dont think that this is really wind. Its more along the line of blowing air.

Pro: Lovely kid, clearly meet challenge, interesting angle
Cons: Too little contrast, too much shadows on his face, could be sharper.

Overall a 5 image, but this kid is too cute for a 5 bumping up to 6 :-) GL

Cute idea and expression on your subject's face. I find the lighting distracting.

Try to avoid the shadows on the face! The hair is lite well...

More lighting on the boy's face would have really improved this photo. A trick that I use is to use a piece of white foam board to reflect light back onto the subject. You can actually use anything large and white (or silver) that will reflect diffused light. Nice shot otherwise.

Great title for this picture! Wish his face wasn't shaded.

The boy's face should probably be better lit. The backgound is distracting despite it being slightly out of focus could you have blurred it more? or have chosen a simpler background. I like his expression.

some fill flash would have helped lighten up the face...he's definitely concentrating! :-)

Surface tension study? In either event, point well conveyed and appropriate for challenge theme. Lighting improvement: I suggest using a fill flash to better illuminate your subject. It may alter the reflections on the bubbles adversely, or it may actually improve it. In either event, there is strong available back lighting afforded by the sun and thus the exposure on the child's face suffers.
