From the standpoint of fill flash I think it has worked quite well.
From the standpoint of composition I think the shadow has let you down as it goes right through the child's head. To me that's a bit of a distraction. |

| As far as the exposure goes, I think that the first two look great. The shadow line was kind bad and I wish that he had a better expression on his face on #1 and #3. #2 is pretty cute. |

I figured as much but thought I would point it out anyway. |
