My nephew and I went out for some awesome single track mountain biking today at a local trail. This is a newer trail that opened a couple years ago called Picture Rock Trail. It is all single track and has some very flowing fun sections that last a mile or so. A very nice trail system.
I took my Pentax Kx and only one lens as I wanted to take a small pack and not weigh it down. We had a great day out and my nephew did great with his single speed. Many comments were heard from other riders as they passed encouraging my nephew on.
Well enough of that, here are the photos.

Of the two with riders in them, you have the sun casting shadows over the riders face/chest - reducing contrast.
#4: the focus here seems to be on the landscape rather than "action". Your nephew is riding out of the frame and crop has cut off the wheel so it is not "grounded"
One thing that strikes me as far more impressive than any of your technical skill - sharing a day out with your nephew ... priceless. These photos will enable both you and your nephew to relive that special day. Priceless. You are one lucky man and your nephew one lucky lad.
