Perspective and lighting makes such a huge difference. Beaut is all around us, we just need to start seeing it :)

The editing has a lot to do with it, but you can notice some improvement on the way the camera is now positioned according to subject and light source, so the person would definitely have better results even if no editing was done to the photos.

The composition is definitely better, but I would love to see the photo's straight out of the cam instead :(

Guys, all you need to do for similar pictures is adjust your perspective, transfer them to a laptop/computer, add enhancements if you want, and adjust the clarity/color/lighting/contrast, all of it. There is a "Red Eye" setting that fixes the redness in your eyes when you take a picture with the flash on, and a "Spot Fix" where you can erase spots. I use a crappy nikon coolpix that has lens issues, and these settings are my best friends when it comes to photography. :D

The comments section of this article just proves once again that you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink.

the secret is getting lower and filters. lots of filters

Wow those pics are awesome! The angle and lighting made significant difference. Dis you also use filters?

You could teach the use of thirds quite well. Nice use of dead space and focal interest in your subject matter. Your use of front and rear lighting is also quite nice. I like it. Great job and thanks for sharing.

Like the top pictures more tbh. Reflective of all the moments that happened. Bottom pictures are beautiful but get boring...

This is just perspective... shoot on your subject's level.

Wow I love your pictures, and I for one, ADORE any of the editing you did to these photos! Whatever you did to make them the way they are, I hope I can someday learn to do exactly what you have done here! They're all so warm, I can hear the stories in each picture, they all seem so quiet and peaceful. An innocent childhood. A world of curiosity that these boys are exploring. I love your work so so much! Thanks for sharing :))))

Aww these are all really cute and greatly captured photos! You improved a lot Keep up the great work! :)

perspective, level, composition, focus, light. understand these, and it will work wonders for you.

Very nice work. I'm impressed.

Lovely images
