Nice candid, well composed. Lacks pop somehow for me.. partial selective desaturation might help bring out the subject better. 7.

Nice crisp focus and good timing, you've caught a nice expression! I'm wondering if this would look better in B/W, since the colors are really not doing much for the picture.

A very good classic portrait, the catchlights in the eyes and the color coordination of shirt with background are very well done.

There's a lot of potential in this picture, but I think it needs some more work to bring it out. The subjects are very sweet, and you have captured a great moment. A couple of things though. The girl's face is cutoff at the ear, and that is very distracting. Also the focus is not sharp enough, the light is bland. A little work in PS with curves, and some dodging of the eyes can help with this. Also with the composition as it is, the eye flits back and forth between the children and finally settles on the background, which incidentally seems to be pretty well focused.
You have photogenic subjects, though, esp. the little girl. You could probably get a stunning shot of just her with some good light and sharp focusing on the eyes.

Nice selective desat. Thought they look more like they are supressing a giggle than meditating. With a more serene expression this would have been really great.

Priceless expression! I wish the focus were a little bit sharper on the eyes.. also not sure if darkening the whole background some more so that the chair doesn't show wouldn't be a good idea.

A haunting look and an ideal crop. The angle is very effective, with the eyes looking up and out of the shawl. One little thing I don't like is that the dodging of the eyes seems to have removed some detail .
But overall, a very very effective image. Let's see if the shawl matches a certain ribbon color :)
PS: I know who's picture this is, or librodo has found a successor :)

Very nice light and placement of the subject in the frame.
