Father and Son

This is an old image I found while prowling around on my hard drive. I like the moment between my husband and son, but am wondering what I should do to improve the image, if it can be fixed.
I figured a tighter crop again on either side to get rid of the brick support and the brown object over my man's shoulder. Any other suggestions on how you would treat this image?
Cheers
