All these are great Michelle - number 4 appeals the most though - like his sassy look.
Canon stuff.

Hi Schellamo
#4 I thought the eyes were a bit dark so I selected his/her eyes with the magnetic selection tool. You have to enlarge and just get the iris. (miss the eyelashes if possible)
Then using either brightness/contrast or levels, I lightened both eyes together, to get to see the pupils a bit clearer.
You may like to try it . It is a personal thing when all said and done.
I just tried with #1 as well and there is a lot of hidden detail (you can see a tongue as well)
Lumix LX5.
Canon 350 D.+ 18-55 Kit lens + Tamron 70-300 macro. + Canon 50mm f1.8 + Manfrotto tripod, in bag.

I am with you on this one Schell.... I really like how you captured the feel in # 3 . The only thing that is missing is the look a mother gets in her eyes while feeding .That would be the only thing i would say could add to this shot .
The rest are good too , but # 3 is the one that i like the most ..

#3 and #4 are very solid. #4 is a great portrait and #3 could be in the photo-journalism forum..
