Not bad. Over all I think they are good. Couple of minor suggestions. Take with a grain of salt. :) Of the 3, I like the last 2 best.
1st pic
doesn't do anything for me. I'd try a slightly different angle, maybe go a little closer in?
2nd pic
nudge it a bit to the left, putting a little more weight on the path while cutting off the somewhat distracting partial trunk in the distance at extreme right.
3rd pic
I would move it over to the left by 1 eye width. (nudge pic over until eye on right is where eye on left is now.) Most books I've read suggest keeping some space in front of the face.
Colors seem a little off to me, but that could be me. A little more 'warmth' might make things pop a bit more.
You can post larger shots, I think I bumped the limits up a while back. :)

Ditto wih me...
Overall I like. But...
1st pic
Recommend Focusing more on the moss. The tree bark part ruins the shot.
2nd pc
ditto on the angle... I recommend trying at different times during the day to find the right natural lighting to bring out the color of the forest.
3rd pic
Always a good ideal to have the camera back far enough that you get your entire head, neck, and upper shoulders in the shot.
Recommend smiling.
Brighter room and chair please, you're almost invisiable in the shot...
More color in the background.

But I don't like to smile! lol kidding... no thanks a lot guys this'll help me out in the future. The camera is very new to me so I haven't quite figured out all the settings yet, so that could help too. ^_^
Cheers!

how about this one of my parents doggie? Any ideas for better pictures of squirmy animals?
Careful on the focus on him...his nose looks blurry, but the rest is sharp.
I would redirect your flash or flood him with light so that the eyes don't have that glow to em in the center.
I don't know what that is in the left bottom corner, so I would crop that out.
Over all not bad
