You will get more replies if you post an actual picture rather than a link, and follow the forum rules by asking what exactly you want critique on.

You have good color and resolution on all the pics. And it's nice to see the flames on the charcoals as they are starting, not easy to capture.

But there's really nothing special that stands out about any of these photos. The only one that caught my attention was #10 but even it isn't overly exciting. Also the dog portraits are kind of nice but again nothing really stands out.

It does look like it was a fun occassion. But all the pics just look like a typical point & shoot afternoon with the family. Perhaps if you focus on one photo that you believe has merit and work on it and then have a critique.

And what AnnaV said.

Please take a moment to read the critique rules. Posters are limited to one image per 24 hour period, and posts need to include EXIF and some specific questions.
