this is a simple, brute, single exposure of a flash of time and space that's otherwise gone.

*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

An interesting image that is assumed to meet the challenge.

I get the chance to comment again! My original comments still stand but I will try and a little more to them and beyond that on looking again I'm finding a lot of blown highlights, in particular around the boy's head, that are diminishing the image's appeal for me. The background behind him is distracting too and would benefit from a crop. But, having said all that the original essence of the image is still there, their wonderful poses and attention out of the frame, it still works wonderfully well.

Thanks for your submission and apologies for the delay, Sid

but, but the dog and the boy ARE focused. perfectly. our not dissimilar dog used to bounce balloons off her nose, sometimes even say awhoo. awhoo.

I like the way they are both looking up which leaves you wondering what they are both looking at. I also like soft focus images but I wish the only sharpness in the image was not where it is - his hand. Good luck

It's a nicely caught moment, but quite out of focus - not sure why you decided to include it in this challenge where almost any photo was fair game?

I would have liked to see at least either the dog or the boy in focus. Looks like their having fun though :)
