Hi! Welcome to the forums. these images are too huge! If you get a chance, you might want to resize them down to 900 pixels wide or less. you can then edit you original post to delete the old huge ones and upload the new ones.

You have a nice grasp on the use of space. I think your composition of color and theme needs some more work though. My suggestion on that would be to focus on less subjects. This will help you placement and focus. Im sure in no time, you will get the hang of this. Nice job so far!
