What a nice clean, clear-cut shot. Says it all. I don't see how this can be improved. I especially like the rain, those short steaks which say it all. Super job.

Very good entry for the contest. Great capture of this little boy enjoying the rain, as most children do, splashing in the puddles. You've captured his enjoyment with the expression on his little face.

Lighting and focus very good. Very nice composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

Annie you got my vote the minute I saw this one the joy of the little one has been captured so well and the composition, focus and overall presentation is excellent. Would have given you extra rating but hadn't got it to give :) Mary

Now that is really cute. His only care in the world is playing in the rain. He looks like a future fireman. Like the way the water is poddeling under his feet. Nice colors with good contrast. Look at that smile.

Great photo. this little guy is adorable in his rain gear. You can tell he is having a great time in the rain. The red hat really pops and draws the attention of the viewer and holds it on the little boy. Jan

A Marla 10! How adorable! I wish I had a six left. Very well done. The expression alone tells a heck of a story. Colors and detail of rain is exceptional.
