Especially this image is the best example for what must be improved in the first place: photography skills.

Faults like this happen, but they shouldn't, when you know your equipment and how to handle it under special situations like these - indoor photography with permanently moving (not staged) posing under artificial lighting (which seems to be much more than in former sets).

Take image five in the row (girl on ladder): Clearly aperture was pretty wide (2.8). That's fine for images where you would like your background blurred. It is dangerous when you picture two girls, because in many situations at least one will be out of focus. That's simple knowledge and experience. Here AF locked onto the first girls shoulder. Camera worked ok, the photographer has to know how to avoid. In this case he would have lock the AF onto another point, at least first girls face, before exposing. Mastering situations like this is expression of photographer quality.

Image four in the row (with both girls in water, one floating) is completely out of focus. The camera AF obviously locked onto the wrong field in the foreground; a similar case of experience to avoid those fails.

And beyond photographers quality: I would never had let images like these see the light of public. Eliminate them, to improve overall quality.

A word about lighting: This time you had plenty of it. That is an improvement because finally I can see detail in dark parts, which normally was sucking in former sets. But lighting is still far from optimum. I especially dislike those shadows. Think about positioning those lights and using two lights which would eliminate most shadowing. Tipp: Take a look at wetfoto images and try to analyse their perfect lighting to learn from it.

Just my thoughts about the last images.
