Dave,
As several people said, the strength of this shot (as is of most
portraits) is to shoot from (or below) the eye level.
I noticed one thing:
It might be an artifact of the downsizing/JPEG, but it looks like the
focus is just a bit in front of the face (see the front of the jacket).
Also, sorry for being pedantic, - you wrote his name as "Brooks", but the
caption says "Brooke".
I suspect you may have made a typo in one of the places, probably in the
e-mail (being used to type your own last name..).
Cheers,
Igor

too lazy to go to the ground, but it's key with kid photography.

Taken at eye level with the kid filling the frame.
Good work Dave!
