This little boy has never seen a tall building.

When he gets older, he may choose to stay in the village, find a wife, and raise his family there. Or, he may decide to move to a city, go to college... Can his family afford it? Will he visit often, or will he forget this little place he used to call home?...

This is a lovely shot/idea for this challenge. I think if the focus were a touch sharper on the boy's face (it looks like perhaps the branch beneath his feet, and his feet, got more focus than his face), and the background weren't quite as bright (not sure how that could be achieved, except maybe fill-and-flash, and maybe not then), it would be stunning.

I love the pose here! Lighting is harsh in background, but what a great capture!

This is cute. It does depict growing up in, and life in the country. Trees ARE for climbing. Well captured.

This is original. Maybe a boost in the contrast would bring out those greens a little more - 8.

The over exposed background is a little distracted. Otherwise, nice picture although the child is a little OOF. 4 Good luck in the challenge.
