Yay - another non-person person! Though in the non-person category, xxrozxx's goat definitely took the show. Very nice duck, indeed! Excellent DOF and bokeh on this. And definitely good color!

Johnny, I presume? He looks a bit more lively in yours. :-) Although both terrified and terrifying. I really like how you added the color in "Color Portrait". Very intriguing! (Edited to add a word. My brain and my fingers are not on the best speaking terms at times. I know what I meant - I'm hoping you did as well.)

Your daughter has incredible eyes! I like the angle and the light coming over her shoulder, but I'm not sure I like the crop off the side of her face. Keep shooting her - she's an excellent model!

What, You Again??

I got a kick out of this one - very real and in the moment. Love the title, by the way. Not sure where all the 4 voters are coming from... Did you take this with a flash? You really need to get this young'un out into natural light - I think it'll really bring out his eyes more. He's a good looking young lad!

The Eyes I Love

The eyes were definitely the first thing I noticed on this - pleased to see that they aren't photoshopped (though they didn't look it to me.) Good lookin' guy you got there, too! At first I wasn't thrilled with the background, but the more I look at it, the more I think it adds to the shot, and fits. Nice work!

Great shot, great processing, pretty much great all around (and a great score to go with it). And she's darn cute, too!

The rather interesting thing I noticed about this one (other than the Team Suck unique angle approach) was that Elvis appears more lively than Johnny in this picture.

You're not my Mommy

Comment:
Underrated in my opinion. The softness is perfect for this shot. I think my quibble would be with the balance of it, with the face too close to one edge, though I suspect that's because you cut out her mother? Very sweet, very innocent.

Good setting, nice even light on the face, and the only "improvement" would be to have the eye contact someone else mentioned. I liked this one when voting - it was real.
