Hi! You might want to take a look at the critique forum rules...specifically posting only one photo per thread, providing EXIF data, etc. It will help us help you better. Thanks!

Sorry for breaking the forum rules, just trying to get some help and didn’t think about there being Rules. And I don't know how to link it to Flickr where I post my pictures.

in the first photo, i'm not 100% sure what my focus is supposed to go to. I want to go to the kids, but the building is right there. then the bottom can get a little distracting. maybe crop a little off the bottom?
