A lot of these are shots from behind the subjects. Get around front for a more interesting shot - faces, not backs of heads.
Hi Jim, yes, many are from behind or the side, I was trying to not be intrusive in the goings on...but I can see how it might not work as well for some.

Very nicely done, capturing the "Kodak moments" in BW.
There is good contrast in the pictures to my eye
Thanks. Glad they don't feel flat to you...on my calibrated screens they don't feel flat.

Very nicely done with the S95. I still have an S100 and it serves me well everyday.
Thanks. My wife has an S110...I will steal it next time, she never uses it...prefers her iPhone...

Travis,
To me, a very pleasing set - I like the processing, not the usual fare, which adds character to the images.
Appears you all had a lovely and enjoyable vacation - nice of the subjects to cooperate so freely Wish I'd used our trip to Tybee to same advantage photographically...
Bob
Thanks Bob. Thanks for the feedback. We had a great time. Not getting in their faces and just capturing the day to day stuff was why they were cooperative! Particularly my daughter, I over photographed her for her first few years and now she makes ugly faces at the camera...or more recently leaves finger prints on the front element telling me to stop pointing a camera at her...

I really like these as a set. 1, 4. 5, 7 & 8 work best for me. I think the gradient that the bright sky provides makes these a little more visually appealing.
I think Jim makes a good point. It is somewhat easy to make vacation photos about the environment, or the family. It is a lot more challenging to make it about both. I think you've done well, but getting in front of them could make these even better.
Thanks for sharing.
Greg
Thanks for the feedback Greg, I will keep all of the pointers in mind next time out...I wish I didn't have to wait so long.
