Potentially a very engaging shot but I agree that a different crop would have worked better, and it is a shame that you didn't get the whole of his foot. Still well worth a vote though.
I just wanted to keep the green plant in my shot, which symbolises the tender age of my subject. Thus the frame should be regarded alongwith this symbolic presence. Ofcourse I agree that the whole of the foot could not be kept in the frame. It is not shame but it is a mistate due to overlook.
A lovely portrait, & the kids look a very happy little pair.
I quite like the plant, especially with your explanation as to what you wanted to acheive.
The foot was a shame though, but I do that myself. You get so focused on what you want, that you forget to look around the frame, just to check everything is right.
oh what a responsibilty for one so young....great capture
I love this one. You can see that there is a bound between them....with or without some toes 
the thing that they look in the direction they do make a balance for sitting with the back towards the wide empty space behind them....other wise I would have had more space in front of them. But as I say the eyes direction make it fair though. VERY NICE!!
