Hi Luis,
In both pictures of the young girls, why didn't you quickly bend your knees 
down to their eye level for a greater impact photo?

Yes I prefer the 2nd. However it could be vastly improved by bending your 
knees! More impact!

These two do nothing!

It's interesting because their eye attention is all in the same direction.

This one works because the lady and characters in the photo booth are all of 
the same message and direction.

This one doesn't do anything at all

I'd have waited a few seconds longer for the cyclist to come into the water 
for a better reflection. Of course if he rode in that direction.

Wasted time and exposure. It doesn't do anything as a single photo, maybe a 
sereis of their expressions would make it work.

I like this simply because of the captured action of the vendor and his out 
stretched hand,

Remember it's light, eyes, action or any combination of these three that 
make for interesting pictures. So in this case it's the availble light and 
the action that makes it work. Well done.
