This is my daughters. One loves having her picture taken and the other not so much.
Welcome here Bwarn. I particularly like #2 I think she pops out of the photo really well but all are nice, well done. Maybe if the hinge? in #1 photo on the left could be cloned out it would really add something.

Thanks. I am really such a beginner. Most of my photos are experiments and yes #1 was difficult to take because where she was standing there was to much signage and the hinges. Thats why I tried to zoom in hoping to cut it out. I also have issue with seeing everything in the view finder. I am hoping to trade my glasses for contacts soon because it hinders me when photographing things. I do have LV but prefer the view finder. It does help to have some critique though it makes me pay more attention to what and how I take a picture. Thanks again.

Don't know what camera you use but I wear glasses for reading and close-up work and I used the dioptre adjuster on my eye-piece so I don't have to use them on the viewer.
Both are beautiful and look like naturals in front of a camera. Good job!
Yep...beautiful girls to be proud of fer sure...welcome.
While I do like #2,the colors aren't correct.I would suggest you study up on white balance.

I have a Nikon D3200. I wear glasses distance so I have to have them see what I am looking at other wise I can't tell if its a clear picture or not.

In my opinion I like the filter you added.
It show that you can take risk.
To say that the colors are not correct is opinion.
Many photographers, probably most of the good ones, enhance color in post.
The filter added a mood to the photo.
If the comment had said the lighting is a little flat. Thats a little more objective.
If the comment had said you could use a little more contrast that would be a little more objective.
I would look into exploring color to develop your style.
Almost all my images have "Incorrect Color"
Contrast could have been added in post.
This is actually just the type of natural lighting I go for.
I love the mood!

Well stated. I couldn't agree more.
Beautiful daughters, daughters are great, but I pity you in a few years.
I think I see their personality showing through the images and that is part the child and part the photographer.
I agree with Pale Pictures.

Thanks for all the great feedback. And yes I realize a thick skin is needed here but that's ok. I want to learn more about photography and what works best. So, fire away and I will take it as a learning experience.
