A moment in a Million...

One of the first pics I've taken with my Canon EOS 1000D 18-55mm.

My two year old hiding his eyes from the sun by the Western Wall in Jerusalem.

Looks like he's deep in prayer, no?

I would love some genuine criticisms on this, as I believe the only way to learn is by learning from pros...

Thanks!

Great photograph. It definitely has som emotional quality to it. Love the composition.

I love this shot. I'm not an expert, but I would like to see what it looks like with the blacks clipped a tiny bit, or the exposure lowered a tad, to bring out more texture in the wall.

No question that you took advantage of a great opportunity here. My only criticism is that it does seem over exposed, to the point of most of his back being blown out. My eyes tend to go toward there than the poignant part of him hiding his eyes against the wall.
