Re: Playground
To me they have a "snapshot" feel to them. Maybe try tighter cropping on the girl s face. and maybe following her as she is swinging and using a faster shutter speed to get some motion blur.

Re: Playground
Hi Mariola, Portraits aren't my thing so I can only offer the the following observations as they struck me.
Watch out for squint horizons (pic 1) cropping to close to the edge pic (2) odd and uncomfortable angles/crops (pics 6and 7 ) and perspectives which foreshorten the subject...it's not the most flattering as it gives the subject a big head and tiny body ( pic 8)

Re: Playground
Gotta agree with Sharon...they all show signs of being too close to your subject. Additionally your losing detail in the dark colors by overwhelming your camera's dynamic range.

Re: Playground
Thanks for sharing these Mariola, I enjoyed viewing them. #1, #4 and #7 would be my pick I think.
