Terri,

I'll give you a couple of observations. I agree that the eyes could be adjusted to a less "shifty" look. I don't know your son, he may be a shifty sort, but a more straight on glance might give him a more "we're having fun look."

Your boys skin tones look to be a little red on my screen. And you might observe the reflected color from the boat onto the underside of his legs and arm to be more yellowish that red.

I like your portrait and given all the adjusting you did I think it works pretty well.
