Little shepherd

Hello everybody
I'm here again to have some tips and critique about this photo of a shepherd boy in Sudan
Critique about the photo and Post-processing
re-editing is welcomed

It looks like a pretty good "grab shot" to me, except for whatever that is growing out of his ear? ; )

Very nice simple image. I like it.

Over all, It's a nice composition and Post Processing.
but when you took the picture you use a wide angle, it's not the wide angle the problem, it's how you held the lens, in other words, it's where you put a part of the subject (here half his body down) in the "deformation" spot on the side of the lens
You might have needed to knee more to compensate the angle of the camera/lens.
(i am not sure if i can be understood with my pseudo explanations )

Thanks a lot .... I got your point

ooh!! thanks a lot rrblint ... I'm glad you like it

such a great notice ... I got your point
I tried not to commit this mistake by taking a wider shot ... so what you see is a cropped version of the image ... but it seems still noticeable
Thank you my friend

An interesting shot, I just want to add that the yellow seems way oversaturated.
