Well the image looks 100% worse IMO. Its gone some weird red grain going on and the crop is too tight.

I know you want to practice, but I'd wait until you have got your DSLR, as image files from phones are already highly compressed and do not handle editing very well.

But for the sake of it, recrop it, but a bigger area and give the lad some space on the left but more space on the right. If you wanna go all out, cut the duck out and stick it next to him.
 
Ill remove if you want, but a very quick edit on my laptop.

yeah i did think about tying to cut the duck and moving it but i aint got a clue how to

tbh im not trying to get a good result with it im just trying to find out what the tools ect on the editing site do

thanks for advice i am now gonna try to cut a duck lol
 
Photoshop CS5.
Just a quick crop, moved the duck, boosted the contrast and a bit of unsharp mask.
 
Not sure what software your using but have a look over on YouTube for tutorials theres often loads pf useful advise there.
