looks like the horse is staring at the kid. Nice!

I appreciate how unrehearsed and honest this is -- most evident in the boy's T-shirt.

WOW, great composition, and very emotional picture. My pick for top 10, good luck.

If only the boy wasn't grinning so cheesily, this would have been fantastic. I look at how awesome and regal the horse looks, and just imagine the boy looking up at the horse instead, and imagine how fantastic the picture would have been. His smile makes this shot a snapshot, the horse and composition makes this shot art. A 6 since the technicals are very nice. I would have loved to give this shot an 8 or a 9 if only he wasn't acknowledging the camera.

Cute combination for a portrait. I must admit, I read terror in the kid's eyes instead of enjoyment. Maybe I'm totally wrong, but that's how it's coming across to me.

well done. I know how hard it is to get both of these subjects to smile at the same time and still fit them both in the frame! Nice job.

Apart from the boy's face being a bit over exposed and his eyes being slitte, presumably against an over bright flash. This is a lovely composition. 7
