    I know you didn't ask for comments but I am going to anyway! You captured some great energy in the kids shots. I do think all the shots could use a boost in exposure by 1/2 to maybe even full stop.

    #1 is your best lit shot except the ways you lined up the family looks awkward...the posing looks best in #3 (think "heads forming triangles" as posing guide for groups). Also boys face could use an exposure bump in #1

    #2 just doesn't work because of the angle.

    See I thought they were a little over exposed. I brought them down about a third to two thirds. I think a little underexposed make it look more dramatic. I hate blowing out the sky. The family actually liked the angled one the best, lol.
    Comments are always welcome when I post.

    I'll add one more thing... color cast. The first looks a little on the green yellow side and the rest look too blue/magenta.

    Yup, I raised the blues a little to bring out the sky.
