Excellent points both.
And Im not any great whiz at composition, please feel free to jump in and correct me any time you want. Composition is always subjective.
I think they are much, much better but keep shooting and hold your balancing scale to them. Ask yourself if I hung this on the wall and stepped back would it look balanced to me. I always went with the five to ten feet back look even figuratively. How does the shot look overall as a picture hanging. Don't get caught up in any one part of it but see it all at the same time.
And three is filled with emotion only blind love can have. God why cant women love like that lol. However the eyes are position too close to the center of the page they need to be higher. that pesky rule of thirds is there also it is not in balance. Next time you shoot one, shoot it thinking that you have to have it higher in the frame. It is good to crop in the camera but dont get so tight that you cant crop for composition in the computer.
I would guess that you are not turning your camera for verticle shots. That is the very, very best way to crop for verticle. Realize which shots need to be verticle before you shoot them. Then just rotate the camera. It is not workable for bounce flash, but it is for natural light. It is the best way to teach yourself.
