And we meet again.
While I try to look at the expression on his face. I'm catching that bright area in the background out of the corner of my eye, and it's messing thing up for me. Makes me want to blink and try to focus again. Usually when I say something is a distraction, I mean it's a little annoying and just doesn't work, but here, it really is effecting the photo in a bad way. It's right near his eyes, and is drawing my eyes away from his really badly.
I think that the tonal range is good. Nice whites in his shirt and nice darks in his hair and shorts.
He really does have a nice expression. Focus and clarity are nice as well. Good detail in his face and hair. I love the way the light highlights his dark hair. Very nice.
Surroundings are good except for that unfortunate bright spot to the upper right. I am assuming that if you were to get down lower, you'd have a bunch of crap in the background that you don't want.
The crop might be just a TAD tight to the left and top. Maybe just a little room there. Could you match the space to the right?
Overall, still makes me smile, and definately fits the challenge in my opinion.

Cute kid. Good lighting, composition. Not really my 'thing' in terms of photos, but the expression is well caught.

maybe framed just a tad tight... This is a fairly 'common' viewpoint that I see in photographs of children... This one isnt as extreme as most, but it's 'from above'. Sometimes, when photographing kids, you can get some better perspectives if you get down on the same level :)

Great capture of emotion, but I think it may be cropped a little too close on the right, I think

Did you mean to put the boy off center. He don't appear to follow the 1/3 rules?

Great expression, good composition.
