That's a great shot! Looks like quite a climb for such a small child.

Artistically I like it. Small child running having fun in a big steep street. Its the way you have brought out the contrast between small child and big wide world.
A wonderfully exhuberant image, Philippe -- it works because of the body languge and expression. It would work even better if he had had the street to himself. The figures in the background, one of them sliced in half, do not add context for meaning. Hold you hand over them and see how this image "pops." It is a good lesson -- always look at your edges and background as you shoot. If you had moved over a bit, you could have removed these figures from your frame.
