For the best C&C (comment and critique, or feedback) post 1 photo at a time.

You've posted 7 pretty different photos - and they are not numbered.
Numbers make it easy for someone to give C&C on #5 instead of having to type "the photo of the lighthouse".
Say someone spent 5 minutes taking a good look at and typing more than just general C&C for each photo.
That someone would have to spend 35 minutes to C&C all 7 photos.
That's not likely to happen.

Also, because the image file sizes were large it took a while for all 7 photos to load.

The last photo, of the young boy, would have benefited from the use of a flash unit (preferably with a snoot), or some judicious post processing with an image editing application.

Your profile doesn't say if we are, or aren't, allowed to edit your photos to demonstrate how editing may help.
 
#1 is your best photo as a single image, due to subject matter and composition; compare it with the little boy who walks through the same or similar ice cave: he's cropped off at the feet, which is a shame, since the shot is of him walking...but his feet are missing and there is awkward top space apportioned above his head.

The old lighthouse: excessively contrasty, but a nice scene with the ladies there. The wall and van: not composed well, with the van awkwardly cropped off. Car seat and bokeh dots? Bokeh dots, even orange ones, are not enough to carry off this photo. B&W walkers? Tilted, not interesting; cityscape: camera shows buildings and tents, not much context.

These are photos that have meaning to you, but to me, they do not convey much of a viewpoint, or anything really interesting to look at. Most people would consider this to be vernacular photography, which has a place. You do have a sort of dispassionate, distant look to your photo style.
