Nice spring colors in this set!

I keep feeling like in the last one the chair is too high and she is too close to the edge. I am sure someone was there to catch her if she fell, but it still gives me an uneasy feeling, which does not work because it is such a "light" scene with no heavy or complicated ideas. A shorter chair perhaps?

Thanks! I definitely see the chair point. Mom loved the chair and we had plans of also taking some of her just standing and holding the chair but it was our last frames of the day and she was totally done after sitting in it. Lol and yes, I had to clone out some wisps of moms hair actually because she was so close and ready to catch.

Nice set; not overly fond of the background in #4, but overall, nicely done.

Not sure if you're looking for C&C? But here's my nits, FWIW.

They all have a magenta hue, at least on my monitor. And in #1, the girl's face looks orange compared to the rest of the scene.

#2 could stand to be straightened up, it leans a little right. WB looks cool - look at the boy's legs. But again with the girl looking orange in comparison.

#3 - best of the set, IMO

#4 - WB is too cool (to me)

#5 - better color balance but I agree with the precarious-looking perch on the high chair comment.

Overall - cute girl, not a bad set. They are all a bit hot/overexposed IMO, but I've also been told I tend to underexpose (and with that, tend to lean too warm) so take that FWIW lol. They lack contrast - there's no depth or shadowing on the faces, and in #3 I'd like to see more contrast overall... is that wagon wheel supposed to be straight red? It looks a bit pinkish-red to me, possibly going on with the whole magenta-hue I noticed in every picture.

I don't dislike them at all. These are just things I noticed

I do agree they all have a sort of pink going on. Lol late night editing I suppose.. I'll have to play with the wb, I definitely have always struggled with that. Thanks for detailed comments! I'm here to learn and grow. And fwiw, I see the orange and have played a bit trying to address that but that really is her complexion. I have photographed her before, she is my friends daughter and she's always a bit orange from her love of carrots. Lol
