Nice shots! First tip...and I'm no expert. Watch your focus. A few shots could have been crisper. I had the same prob with my D40 untill I got used to it. I love the pic where the GF is covering the cellphone with a leaf. Great "back to nature" shot! The B&W's are really nice too.

Default You can enhance your composition

Here is my suggestion.
Avoid to center your subject and let some space where she is looking.
I also recommand to remove the white part of the bench at her left, it is distracting.
Here is the result I suggest:



HTH,

Remember that you dont ALWAYS have to pay attention to the rule of thirds... BUT there are times to break the rules, but make sure that you do so for a reason and also make sure that its the strongest element in the image...

So to sum it up... If you are going to break a rule, do it and do it well!
