The soft focus effect really suits the delightful facial expression of the child.

Aww, what a cutie! I like the softness of your image. The black hat adds a nice contrast. He'll be a heart breakin' cowboy when he ggrows up. Lol

It would be less distracting had you cropped out the brim of the hat... my eyes are draw to that space when they should remain on the child.

love the soft focus and the expression. I wish the second eye would be a bit more in focus. Great light, too.
