You'll get there. I think you need a faster shutter speed on the kid pics. She's blurry. And the grass, well, it's nice, but it's not there yet. With something so ubiquitous (I bet every regular here has a shot almost exactly like yours, I know I do) a person really has to work to make something special out of it. A photograph of something we've seen 1000 times has to be outstanding. Else we just go, oh yeah, another sunset/foliage shot/kid pic etc. Not every shot I take is calendar worthy, but some of them are good just because of the execution if not the subject. Practice, practice, practice. I've been doing this since 1985.

Don't let this put you off your game though. I'm in the middle of a blog post about how much you need to take pictures to get anywhere good at it. How as a photographer you have to burn a lot of film, or for you guys who never shot film, a lot of memory cards. You'll need to take thousands if not tens of thousands of pictures to get where you feel comfortable with your work and like a lot of it. That's the fun part though. If I come back with 5 out of 100 pictures I'm happy. When I started in the 80s I was lucky to get 5 out of 1000 that I don't think suck now. Photography expertise comes by doing.
