Exposures look good, composition good. The 1st picture could be posed a little different, maybe thinking of thirds but still good.

In the first picture if the woman was off to the side you could see the length of the bridge.And it would have pulled you into the picture more.

With the exception of REALLY skinny women, it is seldom a good idea to photograph any female straight on as it makes them wider. That pose in #1 is just not flattering. Also, you were out in the direct sun and that has blown out the highlights on her left side and she is squinting in the harsh light.

#2 is pretty good. Still have that unflattering sunlight, but at least she is turned a bit and that will narrow the shoulders. The leaves hides her body, so no issues there. Her arms are hanging straight down and it would look nicer if a hand were on a hip or if she were holding something like one of those flowers. (hands and arms are tough).

The running dog image is cute. I would crop it tighter, but that is just my choice.

The last image has a blue thing in what is a B&W image. Why? Cute dog and cute image, but why is that thing blue?
The dog's eyes would benefit from a catchlight just as human eyes do. Eyes without a catchlight have no "life."

I don’t care for the composition or lighting in the first picture. I agree that if she were off to the side and maybe standing, that it might be more appealing.

I like the second one. The light is a little harsh, but the color and vibrancy is wonderful. It is a more flattering picture of your subject.

I love the action of the dog captured. Focus is wonderful.

I Iike the B & W with the colored toy. Is this soft focused or is it just me?

I liked the 2nd and 4th the best however I have to say I also noticed your avatar picture and I think that it is super composition and a great shot. You should have that framed.
