I'm not sure why it's called the pyramids. They're out of focus and the boy seems to be the main subject. The BW is OK but I prefer more black for contrast. The sky's rather empty. If the boy is one of the locals, it would look better if he was not wearing that T shirt, but rather a turban and local garb. Also, replace the horse with a camel. The arrangement doesn't seem right having the horse between the the boy and background. There's no relationship among the boy, horse and pyramids. Nice shot. It must have been pretty amazing being at the pyramids; seeing something so many thousands of years old.
