ETA: Seems that we are only allowed to upload 5 images in one post, I am replacing the last image with my most recent edit. While I don't have the most focused image to work on in this one but I really love the interaction between the kids. Had great fun editing.
Any feedback welcome!
Reflection: My son staring out of the window at the airport

I think the first and third are really nice. Did you crop #3? I'd like to see his feet in the water to complete the feel.

Thank you.
No, I did not crop #3. My son was running fast and having so much fun in the puddle I only caught one with clear focused image while he paused for a sec. But I agree, I wished I had captured the feet too.

that first one is a jaw dropper for me. all are very nice images but the first one very strong for me.
Thank you. They were all traveling photos mostly my son running around or it's dark at night. I was a little surprised at the dynamic range my little EM5 can pull out without the help of any flash, especially for #2 because it was very dark. It's far from perfect but i like the final result.

meaning your children are absolutly beautiful. It help the photograph be that much better.
Ah, thank you. That's absolutely correct. My son is the reason I started to learn photography, and my motivation to strive to be one of the best hopefully in the future
Nice photos, and cute kid. But had you not mentioned China I never would have known that's where this took place. If the goal is to capture your kid in a different culture, then the photos need a lot more context. But if the goal is to capture nice portraits of your kid, then good job.

Thank you for your comment. Let's see: The first one at the airport, the second one at a underground walkway where peddlers sell various little things (never saw that anywhere else), the fourth at a hairdresser's shop (I don't think they do it like that here in USA for little kids that's why my son looks confused), the fifth one I replaced was at a hotpot restaurant (my hometown original). They all look very "China" to me :-).
I don't know if you've ever been to China but big cities in China nowadays are not very different from NYC and LA. However you are probably right. It can be hard for anyone else to guess where it is since those elements I mentioned are either hidden or not obvious in the pictures. And yes my primary focus was portraits for my kid. :-)
