They look good in a lot of ways. I would remove the stray hairs on 1, 4, and 6.

You've captured some very nice expressions! I know how hard it can be to capture such a little one! One suggestion...be careful with the vignetting, especially on #3 (boy's sleeve) and #4 (lady's arm).

Nice set.

#1. I like the PP, tenderness approach. Only one suggestion : try do crop "in" the arm and to crop out some sky on the top.

#2. Poetic. The C&C : twist the model body, so she show more profile and give more impression of movement.

#3. To much PP. Ok his eyes are blue, but here it's like saying very loud to the looker "do you see that his eyes are blue, hum .. do you ?".

#4. no picture ?

#5. Nice compo. The C&C : we don't see where the child is running to ..

#6. again, tenderness and soft. Nice

2, 4, 6 are very nice

5 has a very nice compisition, however i feel that the lady is neither out-of-focus enough to be in the background and nor in-focus enough to be a subject, and so the overall feel is not quite what it should be

1, and 3 seem OK

Really nice photos. Great emotion in them. Just curious, what lens on number 4?

I believe it was my Nikon 50mm f/1.8 prime lens. I love that lens!

I agree. I am not a fan of the 'bump up the eyes only' technique. I increased the overall vibrance to give his skin some more 'pop,' but evidently there wasn't much color there. The only part of the photo that really got pumped up were the eyes.

I see them as, well, what they are, photographs of your family. Doesn't look like you were trying to do anything artistic or out of the ordinary. Just taking a few family photos. You pointed the camera, got the exposure right and pressed the shutter button.

I can't really figure out what type of comments you are looking for

Is the PP intentional on 1? Their skin is very grayish almost as though you desaturated or overlaid it with a semi-transparent BW. The result isn't very pleasing. Same could be said of 4 to a lesser degree.

jfinite: Thanks for the comment, I definitely see your point. On #1 I think the original was too bright (I was too close with the flash).

John: Thanks for the comment. What would you suggest I do differently?
