What was the source of lighting that is directly in front of him which puts the left side of his face in deep shadow as he looks over his shoulder at the camera. It makes me imagine he is about to enter a brightly lit house from a very dark garden.

It was late in the day and the sun was low and a ray was coming thru the trees and got him almost streight on in the face..the only PP done on this is to remove some "hot" areas on his left cheek. The "eyes" have it !

Whenever I get shots of my younger cousins they have to be in front of a huge mess of stuff that always takes away from the picture. I'm with you on the background clutter...it can be very distracting so I love to shoot with a VERY SHALLOW DoF...I just happened to see him in front of this doorway with the light in a restricted spot and was lucky enough to grab my camera without things changing (especially his being there!). I did mention there was not much PP (again, lucky shot) but there was a lot of cropping here, as is usual when I shoot kids...I need to try and capture the whole body movement more often....maybe I'm a bit lazy and just go streight for the eyes..

My only thought (besides the left side being a little hot) is to try a slightly tighter crop. Hope you don't mind that i post my "version". I'll remove it if you'd like.
