Happy birthday to poppy Jim!

[Brodie Jackson]

It was my pops birthday, so we had a small family gathering. He still enjoys the occasional coldie in his old age losing his marbles a bit though the poor bloke lol.
was just taking a few snaps. Comments and advice very welcome

#1 is a lovely informal portrait..I would have cropped a bit tighter and used a warmer tone, but that is personal preference.

#2 is also a great shot and I wouldn't actually change anything with that.

lovely work...

 

[Brodie Jackson]

Might give that a go, adrian
Thanks!

Priceless shots Brodie

Agree with Adrian on a few possible tweaks to make it even better

#2 is a winner right out of the box - great composition with the subject off-set, and lots of space for her to look into.

Nice OOF background as well

Cheers Chris, I appreciate it

Can't add any more to the wonderful advice the others have given but can say how lovely they are. I got a real sense of the family occasion looking at the first two.

Cheers Paul!
