You know, I love the shot... that man's pose and expression remind me of Norman Rockwell paintings. If you cropped it tight vertically around all of him to take out the bench (as cute as the bench is, I think it takes away from him) it would REALLY be like an homage to Rockwell. Not cropped, it's a very cute shot! Where on earth did you find a bench like that? And you definitely got a great shot with him sitting there.
