Just rotating it a bit to straighten the verticals would require a little trimming. I don't think this pic can stand much more trimming as the environment adds considerably to the photograph. Perhaps a slight rotation and trim before it was cropped would be the way to go. Also, it seems that, should the pic be rotated to straighten the vertical, the lad on the viewer's right might the be tilted more than would be acceptable .... just guestimating on that point since I've not rotated it.
I'd like to see this in B&W, or with a slight sepia tone. People shoot too much color, perhaps because it's what they're used to seeing, or because it's simpler to do (esp in digital), and a lot of photos are diminished by that apoproach. A ~good~ thoughful B&W conversion may lift this from the ordinary into something a bit more interesing and with greater impact.
