Philippe, would you mind posting a few lines on your thoughts on these 
regarding the composition and why each picture appeals, or
not, to you? I shall be very interested to read what others think on these, 
as well.
The first works for me with the angle of your view and the lines of bow and 
arrow. As an archery enthusiast, I want to come on over
and set him straight on technique though ;-)
I'm not with you on the second. I don't see what the tree does for the 
picture. I don't see enough of what the boy is doing to grab
my attention either?
What was your thinking on the choice of having the background as the 
sharpest focus?

Cheers
Hoppy

Then I'll put it up again for comparison.
I'm very interested to discover which one appeals more.
But I'll take it off in a few days again. I personally really don't  
like it.

Here it is:

Shoot!
