Please tell me what you think

So I have decided to take my photography hobby a lot more serious and would like to get some feedback from others outside of my family and friends. I feel that I may be annoying them with all of my pictures.

I look forward to your constructive criticism.

Thanks

On shot #2 do a curves adjustment using the white eyedropper on the white tail feathers. in edit fade the curves adjustment
to about 70%. If you want I will post an image using these adjustments

I like them, I agree with comments on #2, plus you might sharpen a tiny bit.
I think the idea of your son's picture with the reflection is great, but would love to see his whole reflection, Just me;)
Maybe backing up and then cropping to include the whole reflection. Also, if you use Photoshop or some other software, you could lighten him so his details would be a little more noticable. would you like me to give it a try. however, I still think the shot is great. Love it!

On the baby shot - try laying on the ground and shooting at his eye level...you will be surprised. just a hint.

Let me just add, try for a level horizon. Not an easy task when your concentration is on catching him in mid air!

I like the images especially the first two. For my particular taste, I would take a look at decreasing the shadows which lightens up the picture on the first two and the one of your son. In the case of your son, it should allow you to see his facial expression which would be great. I don't know the result but it is one that I would try. It may very well be that the editing that you have would be best. You have to decide in the end.

while a level horizon generally makes for a nicer picture, what you captured is great. The lines of your sons arm, lines up with the waves and the whole picture has super diagonal lines. Lighten up your sons face a bit and you have an awesome keeper.
