Your portrait is great - nice detail and pose. Your background however is distracting - the bright light on the grass and trees pulls my eye away from your subject.

This one just feels over exposed to me. The lighting angle gives her eyes an almost "alien" color. Plus I wish the details in her face were sharper.

Excellent concept here - I like the choice of subjects - very interesting face. However, your lighting here is very harsh -too much contrast between the light and dark areas - leaving the brightest areas over exposed with lost detail. Also his face and beard are just not sharp enough.

I like your pose and expression here, but this one seems over processed. Her eyes have no detail or catchlight.

Such a sweet photo! You really captured that innocence and the sweetness of a sleeping baby. From a technical viewpoint, the most sharply focused part of the photo is the stars in his hat. I would prefer his face - nose,eyes, etc. to be more sharply focused. A greater depth of field would have made this a stronger shot.

While I like the pose, the framing and the expression, this feels under exposed.

I think this would have been more effective if you had made sure your camera was level - the fireplace and window frame as well as the table are all rotated.

Grainy, you have over exposed and lost the detail in the water (that area that is solid white on the fall on the left)

Great pose, sweet expression, way too much post processing.

Those twiggy branches at the top are a distracting element - It is always important to sweep the edges of your frame before you take your shot. The shot would be stronger if you cloned them out.
