This feels a little off-centre, but I see that the boy is centered, and it's just the word at the bottom that is the problem. Couldn't be helped I guess. This evokes such a tropical feeling in me - hot summer nights and cool drinks.

The boy looks a little under-exposed. Maybe a little dodging on him might have helped, because the rest of the shot is spot-on.

is that a star or is it a flower?

Good job. Seems to be leaning to the right slightly.

Looks like someone likes to play in the sand.

The image looks a little tilted. I would have liked it a little wider, the crop is a little tight on the sides for me. The boy is a very nice touch in this composition. I really like the lighting. I gave you a 7

It's a nice photo for sure. I'm not really seeing 'Star', not the typical view anyway and I don't think the jumbled background is helping.

I like the candles/light in the sand...

This is a really unusual image - loads of depth to it. It holds the viewer much longer than most. Great job.
