Do you ever position yourself in anything but the upright, vertical standing position when shooting? Have you tried rotating your camera orientation 90°?

#3 has some potential with a severe crop of the child interacting with the bubbles.

yeah, i kneel down sometimes, but i couldn't kneel fast enough for these spontaneous moments (except maybe #1). Thanks for the tip!
Although i don't think any of these would look good in portrait orientation.

What's your subject in #2? All the people seem to be standing tall. The guy in the back, who is OOF, is the only one in full. Turning the camera may have provided a better shot, certainly a different one. My best advice is immediately after shooting a horizontal orientation, shoot a vertical.

Oh, I really never thought of that. Thanks for the advice! I was going for the woman taking the picture as my subject.
