It soooooo ...nice. I love it!

Also it is a good B&W picture, good job of you, and good job of the boy too.

A very beautiful and powerful capture, of you, and yes, of the little boy as well( looks like an intelligent little fellow)...! I very much like your B&W treatment, as well as your choice of square framing this, which brings the boy in closer, and emphasizes his strong expression, imo. Really very nice! Best regards, Marjolein (PS: nice striped shirt too, which adds a bit of an old fashioned feeling to your photo :-) 

Incredible portrait with good use of light...!!!!  7/7....!!!

This is a good picture. The child's eyes, his hands and what they are holding, could suggest many scenarios. It makes me think on Herman Hesse', Damian. Cherrs.

I love what you did to capture this photo.  The lighting was just right on the boys right side of his face to give enough detail.  Well done!
