Composition/Content - Trying to capture motion *and* trying to do it with a kid as your subject is a double challenge. Given that, I'm willing to be more accepting of imperfect composition. Nevertheless, I would've preferred a perspective of Isaac where the blue pole wasn't quite in the middle of the frame, and the bright wall (?) in the left corner was absent. I believe that you thought this out and planned the image carefully. I particularly like the reflections in the slide and the detail on the slide surface... bb's???
Background - Wish the blown out wall on the left weren't there. Otherwise I like the tree and overcast sky.
Camera Work - Technical - I don't know what I would've done differently given your selection of subject and composition. That's not meant to be a negative remark. I'm saying that the concept and the composition are simple. Extensive technical creativity is not really warranted.
Digital Processing - No complaints and nothing stands out as wonderful.
Opinion - Ultimately, I like the concept, and I think the execution was fair-to-good. I sympathize, as i've always been frustrated at the results of images I've taken of my kids on slides. |

Motion study does not mean just slow the shutter. |

Nice candid. A couple of seconds later and the pole would have grown out of his head :) Must always be weary of bakground distractions. Though I know we're supposed to depict motion, it would be nice to have the subject in focus. |
