The only one I would say would definitly not do well is #6....that pink just screams at me.

ETA..
Titles are going to be important.

[Karen_Smith]

Is this better??

[Dave_Cisco]

Is this better??

Yes, but it is still last of the 6 for me....could be #1 of 6 for others.

Karen - The thing I notice is you could leave more space around the subjects - except for the senior girl - I would crop a little higher up on her leg. see how her thigh slightly bulges up on her front leg? I would crop right above that slight bulge. Also if possible is there anymore room in front of her - to camera left?

My least favorite is #5 - it just looks busy to me.

Hi Karen, Image #1 the feet look too dark. Image #2 The nose area and the front of the shoulder seem to draw my attention too much. I like the 2nd beach shot much better but I'd chose a mat color to go with the image, make it more muted.

Just liquify her thigh..and midsection.

[Karen_Smith]

If I cropped the senior girl at the upper thigh, where would be the best place to put her on the mat?
#2 should I make the boy smaller?
#1 does she need more space abover her head?
#5 I agree that this looks to busy, Holly, thanks for pointing that out.

Thanks for the suggestions, if anyone has more please let me know.
