Hi Abram and belated welcome to TE!!
I really like the tight frame choice here! And the little boy on the left in the foreground looking at the main character is really putting the latest in perspective. It's a nice and usefull addition in the frame. I think I would I would have prefered to have an empty background, without the kid looking at you (but that's something difficult to control for sure ;-)). I also like the fact that the main kid in the foreground is not looking straight at the camera (but a little bit upper).
Maybe a would crop just a tiny bit the top to get rid of the highlight on his forehead (i'll try it on the workshop) but it's a small detail!
Congratulations!
Vincent

Hello Abram,

outstanding documentary style portrait -- it grabbed me from the thumbnail and the full-version did not disappoint.

DOF, POV - both really good -- you resisted the urge to oversharpen(wish I could say the same for many others on this site)...

Little dark around his left eye -- perhaps a centimeter too close ..... but thats just extreme nitpicking. Its fairly perfect in my eyes - nothing really stands out for criticism.

An interesting moment in time you've captured here Abram!
regards,
steve

Stunning.
Great depth of field and framing. I imagine the large scale print would be even more powerful.
I look forward to seeing more shots from your trip.
